Installation

Archora ships from a single repository: github.com/archora-dev/archora.

While pre-built binaries and an npm package are not yet released, you can run both surfaces from source.

Prerequisites

• Node.js ≥ 20
• npm ≥ 10
• For the desktop app: Rust toolchain (stable) — see tauri.app/start/prerequisites.

Clone the repo

git clone https://github.com/archora-dev/archora.git
cd archora
npm install

Desktop app

npm run tauri:dev

This starts the Vite dev server and opens the Tauri window. The first run takes a minute (Rust compilation); subsequent runs are fast.

For a production build:

npm run tauri:build

The signed installer lands in src-tauri/target/release/bundle/.

CLI

The CLI is a workspace package, runnable via vite-node:

# from repo root
npm run cli -- analyze /path/to/your/project > scan.json

# or, equivalently
npx vite-node packages/cli/src/index.ts -- analyze /path/to/your/project

Once published to npm (planned), the same will work via npx @archora/cli.

See the CLI overview for the full command set.

What's coming

• Pre-built desktop installers for macOS, Windows, Linux (signed).
• @archora/cli published to npm.
• Custom domain.
