What it does

A complete code host that happens to run on your own hardware.

  • Repositories, not a folderReal git repositories with history, branches, diffs, merges and tags — clone, pull and push against them like any other remote.
  • A web interface over your own diskBrowse, search, edit and upload through the browser. Syntax highlighting, rendered Markdown, ZIP downloads and content search across every repository.
  • It never phones homeNo account, no telemetry, no outbound calls. Unplug the network and nothing about it changes.
  • Built not to lose a byteEvery write is atomic and space-checked, backups run on a schedule and restore from inside the app, and a safety net records work you have not committed yet.
  • Yours, on your own machinesOne payment, no subscription, no renewal. Your repositories sit in your own storage in ordinary git format — nothing here holds them hostage.
  • Tested on every change646 backend tests, 119 frontend tests and ten end-to-end flows through a real browser, run on Linux, Windows and macOS.

Git must be installed. CODE-STORE uses it for every repository operation. Everything else — Python, the web interface — is bundled, so there is nothing else to install. Get it from git-scm.com.

Verify your download

Every checksum above is also published as SHA256SUMS. Checking one takes a second and is worth it.

# Linux and macOS
sha256sum -c SHA256SUMS --ignore-missing

# Windows (PowerShell)
Get-FileHash code-store-*-windows-x64-setup.exe -Algorithm SHA256

The builds are not code-signed yet, so this checksum is the only way to confirm you have the file this release published. It proves the download was not corrupted or altered in transit; it does not prove who built it.

What to expect on first run

Windows shows a SmartScreen warning, because the build is unsigned — choose More info, then Run anyway. macOS refuses to open the app until you right-click it and choose Open, or run xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine /Applications/CODE-STORE.app.

Your repositories live outside the application directory on every platform, so installing a new version over an old one keeps them.

£149 once

  • One licence covers one person, on any number of machines that person alone uses.
  • Perpetual and activated offline — it never calls a service to check itself.
  • Updates within v1 are free, and arrive by email rather than an update nag.
  • Licensing never locks you out of a repository. That is a deliberate line, and a test holds it.
