#@alepha/desktop - Core

Native macOS window for a compiled Alepha app: a webview shell, a supervised server Worker on loopback, and alepha compile --desktop.

#Installation

npm install @alepha/desktop

#Overview

A compiled Alepha app in a native macOS window.

sh 
alepha build --runtime bun
alepha compile --desktop --out myapp

The result is dist/<Name>.app: one executable whose main thread owns a webview window, while the app's own server runs in a Bun Worker on an ephemeral 127.0.0.1 port, reachable only by that window.

This entry is the protocol both sides of the Worker boundary speak (DesktopProtocol). The Worker side is @alepha/desktop/worker.
