## Desktop-first and web-ready
Graphite is designed principally as a professional-grade desktop application that is also accessible in-browser for quick, casual usage.
Where's the download? Windows, Mac, and Linux apps should be available in early 2025.
Where's the download? Windows, Mac, and Linux apps should be available around the start of 2025. Until then, you can <a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/9658361" target="_blank">install it as a PWA</a>.
Graphite is designed principally as a professional desktop application that is also accessible in a browser for quick, casual usage. It's built for speed with (nearly) no JavaScript. And regardless of platform, your work runs locally and privately on your own hardware. There is no server.
Developing and maintaining a native app on so many platforms is a big task. A fast, sloppy approach wouldn't cut it, but engineering the right tech takes time. That's why first supporting just web, the one platform that stays up-to-date and reaches all devices, was the initial priority.
Engineering the tech for a native app distributed across three new platforms takes extra time. That's why supporting the web platform, which keeps up-to-date and reaches all devices, has been the initial target. For now, you can <a href="https://support.google.com/chrome/answer/9658361" target="_blank">install the app as a PWA</a> for a desktop-like experience.
Once it's ready to shine, Graphite's code architecture is structured to deliver native performance for your graphically intensive workloads on desktop platforms and very low overhead on the web thanks to WebAssembly and WebGPU, new high-performance browser technologies.
