Desktop Guides

The Biosimulant desktop app is the local workbench for editing labs, working with local packages, and running simulations on your machine. It consumes the same open-source biosimulant Python CLI and runtime used by local terminals, Cloud Studio, CI, and servers.

New here? Start with the Desktop App for install, then References > CLI for terminal usage. To extend the desktop app itself with plugins, see Build a Desktop Plugin.

What you can do here

Work with local models and labs.
Export and import package artifacts.
Use the biosimulant CLI against the same local state as the app.
Install and build desktop plugins.
