Build Desktop Apps with Plugin Power
Orbis is a plugin-driven desktop application platform built with Rust and React. Define UIs with JSON schemas, sandbox plugins with WASM, and deploy anywhere.
Everything you need to build desktop apps
A complete platform for building extensible, secure, and performant desktop applications.
Plugin Architecture
Extend functionality through WASM-sandboxed plugins. Each plugin runs in isolation with configurable permissions.
Schema-Driven UI
Define interfaces using JSON schemas instead of writing React code. The Orbis renderer handles the rest.
Rust Performance
Built on Tauri with a Rust backend for native performance and minimal memory footprint.
Two Deployment Modes
Run standalone with SQLite for single-user apps, or in client-server mode with PostgreSQL for teams.
shadcn/ui Components
Beautiful, accessible UI components out of the box with full customization support.
Secure by Default
JWT authentication, Argon2 password hashing, and TLS support built-in for production-ready security.
Declarative UI in JSON
Define your plugin UI with simple JSON schemas. No React knowledge required.
