Remix Desktop is an Electron-based desktop version of the Remix IDE for Ethereum smart contract development, offering native filesystem access. This repository is deprecated in favor of remix-project-org/remix-desktop.

Use cases

  • develop and deploy ethereum smart contracts locally
  • edit solidity contracts with filesystem access
  • desktop ide for remix
  • compile and test smart contracts offline
  • manage contract workspaces with version control

When to choose

  • you want Remix IDE with native filesystem and git access
  • you prefer a desktop app over the browser-based Remix IDE

When to avoid

  • starting a new project - use the maintained remix-project-org/remix-desktop instead
  • you need easy MetaMask integration for public testnet deployment
  • you want the latest Remix IDE features via the web app
