Terax is a lightweight (~7 MB) open-source desktop application that combines a GPU-rendered terminal, code editor, file explorer, git source control with a commit graph, web preview, and an agentic AI side-panel into one workspace. It is built with Tauri 2, Rust, and React 19, supports bring-your-own API keys or fully local models via LM Studio/Ollama, and has no telemetry or accounts.
Use cases
- lightweight AI-powered terminal for coding
- terminal with built-in code editor and AI agents
- review AI code edit diffs before applying them
- run local LLM coding assistant offline
- git staging and commit graph without leaving the terminal
- fast terminal with web preview of dev servers
- vim-mode editor with AI autocomplete
- replace heavy IDE with a 7MB dev workspace
When to choose
- you want a fast, tiny terminal-first workspace with AI built in
- you prefer BYOK or fully local models with no telemetry or accounts
- you need terminal, editor, git, and web preview in one lightweight app
- you like keyboard-driven workflows with Vim support
When to avoid
- you need a full IDE with debugger UI and refactoring tools
- you require remote/hosted collaboration features or team accounts
- you need extensive language-server and plugin ecosystem support
- you need a guaranteed stable 1.0 release (project is pre-1.0)
