title: "Radicle Desktop 🖥️"

Today, we're excited to officially introduce Radicle Desktop - a simple, intuitive desktop app that makes contributing to the Radicle network easier than ever.
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Since Radicle reached version 1.0.0 in September last year, we’ve been focused on improving the overall user experience. We believe the Radicle network becomes more valuable the more people participate - and Radicle Desktop is a step toward making that participation more accessible, without making any compromises.
|
||
|
||
## Try it out! 🪄
|
||
|
||
Head over to [{{ site.url }}/desktop][desktop] to find the install instructions including packaged versions for major distributions.
|
||
|
||
## What is Radicle Desktop?
|
||
|
||
|
||
|
||
Radicle Desktop is a graphical interface built to simplify some of the more complex parts of the Radicle experience, such as issue management and patch reviews. It offers a familiar experience to other forges, giving you an overview of all the repositories on your node, and allowing you to manage issues and collaborate on patches seamlessly.
|
||
|
||
## What Radicle Desktop (currently) is not
|
||
|
||
Radicle Desktop is not trying to replace your terminal, IDE, or code editor - you already have your preferred tools for code browsing. It won’t replace our existing [{{ site.explorer }}](https://{{ site.explorer }}) and [search.radicle.xyz](https://search.radicle.xyz) for finding and exploring projects. It also doesn’t run a node for you. Instead, it communicates with your existing Radicle node, supporting your current workflow and encourages gradual adoption.
|
||
|
||
## Why we’re excited 🎊
|
||
|
||
Radicle Desktop marks the latest addition to the growing Radicle ecosystem. A lot of work has gone into this release, and we’re happily using Radicle Desktop ourselves for some time now. We also want to extend a big thank you to everyone who tried the earlier versions - the feedback has been immensely valuable. Even some of the CLI fans admit that certain workflows are better in the app.
