STAX IDE
staxide.com →Your terminals, laid out on an infinite canvas
WHAT IT SOLVES
You've got terminals, browsers, notes, and files all stacked on top of each other — good luck finding anything
WHY IT'S INTERESTING
No account, no telemetry
Even at v0.5, zero cloud dependencies — pure 127.0.0.1 local-first, one brew command. In an era where every IDE is racing to the cloud, that's a deliberate counter-move
Infinite canvas with bird's-eye zoom
Terminals, browsers, notes — all on a zoomable canvas. Drag, group, save layouts, zoom out to see everything running. Not just window tiling — it's spatial memory applied to a dev environment
Shipped macOS + Windows together
Solo project, ships on both macOS and Windows at v0.5, with brew cask and PowerShell one-liners — this isn't a prototype, it's a real delivery
TECH GUESS
Likely Electron or Tauri, serves locally on 127.0.0.1
