Quickstart

The desktop app depends on Docker already being installed and running on your system. This is a hard dependency as the Desktop app is just a wrapper around the Docker container (for now). (Cross-platform packaging of Python + JS + Chrome + wget + curl and more without Docker is a hard problem)

Yes, it's an Electron app, yes, I'm sorry. Electron is just so easy compared to the alternatives, and I don't have the time to do full native development.
