Swarm Desktop

Swarm Desktop simplifies running and managing a Bee node on the decentralized Swarm storage network. Built with Electron, it provides a desktop interface for users who want to participate in Swarm without manually configuring the node through terminal commands. On first launch, it downloads and initializes the required Bee software. The application then runs from the system tray, providing controls for starting and stopping the node. Its browser-based Bee Dashboard offers access to node management and network functionality. Quick links connect users to compatible community applications and a screenshot-sharing utility. Diagnostic logs and configuration data are stored locally for troubleshooting. Swarm Desktop supports Windows, macOS, and Linux through platform-specific installation packages.
