Installation

Set up VibeCaaS in your browser, on the desktop, or via the CLI — and authenticate so you can start building.

Installation

VibeCaaS meets you where you work. You can use it entirely in the browser with zero setup, install the desktop app, or drive everything from the command line. This page covers each option and the system requirements.

Web browser — no installation required

VibeCaaS runs directly in your browser. Visit your dashboard and sign in to get started — there is nothing to download.

Supported browsers:

Browser	Minimum version
Chrome / Edge	90+
Firefox	88+
Safari	14+

Desktop app

The native desktop app adds enhanced performance and limited offline capabilities. It is available for macOS 11.0+ (Apple Silicon and Intel), Windows 10+ (64-bit), and Linux (AppImage, deb, rpm).
