Kinode for Desktop

** BETA **

Currently supports Windows and Linux.

1.0 and MacOS support coming Soon™.

Tour

We're excited to release the Kinode Desktop beta (0.4.0) for Windows and Linux! You can download the binaries here: https://github.com/kinode-dao/kinode-desktop/releases

If you're a Linux user, it should Just Work

If you're a Windows user, during install you will probably see a warning about an "Unrecognized app" and "Unknown publisher". This is expected, and we're working on removing this warning in a future version

If you're a MacOS user, we're working on getting a version out for you soon

A quick guided tour:

When you first open the application after installing, you should see a splash screen that looks like this

You'll need to select an existing node home directory or create a new one using the Select Directory dialog. If creating a new one, you'll need to connect your favorite wallet

Once you're in, there's one more thing of interest to call your attention to. In the top-left menu, you've got a File > Home button that will take you back to your homescreen when clicked (hotkey Ctrl + H). Very important to get back home after using an app!
