DESKTOP SOFTWARE

Modern desktop apps for Windows, macOS and Linux.

Cross-platform desktop apps built with web tech (Node + React + TS). Internal systems, automation, B2B tools.

Why web-based desktop?

Modern desktop software is mostly built with web tech — written in Node, React and TypeScript, then packaged natively for each platform. This approach unlocks code sharing with your web and mobile stack and dramatically speeds up development. At Kritm we build internal ERP/CRM, production tracking software, kiosk applications and process automation desktop tools.

Frequently asked questions

Top desktop software questions.

How does web-tech desktop perform?

On modern hardware it's more than enough for typical B2B apps. We recommend native for very compute-heavy scenarios (CAD, video editor).

Which platforms do you support?

Windows 10+, macOS 11+, Ubuntu 22.04+ (and other modern Linux distros). Same codebase.

On-premise or cloud?

Depends on data sensitivity and compliance. We propose on-premise or a cloud + local cache hybrid as needed.

Can you modernize our existing .NET / WPF app?

Yes. Start with a 1-2 week audit. Then propose either an incremental rewrite or a web-based modern alternative.

How do auto-updates work?

When a new version ships the app downloads it in the background and applies it on next launch. Rollback supported.
