Installation

Workjet is a native desktop application built with Tauri v2. It runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux with a small binary size (~15 MB) and fast startup time.

System Requirements

Platform Minimum Version Notes
macOS 12.0 (Monterey) or later Apple Silicon (ARM) and Intel builds available
Windows 10 (build 1809) or later x64 architecture
Linux Ubuntu 20.04+ or equivalent Requires WebKit2GTK 4.1+

Binary size: Workjet installers are approximately 15 MB. The app uses your system's native webview rather than bundling a full browser engine, keeping the download small and startup fast.

Download

macOS

  • Apple Silicon (M1/M2/M3/M4): Download Workjet_aarch64.dmg
  • Intel: Download Workjet_x64.dmg

Open the .dmg file and drag Workjet to your Applications folder. On first launch, macOS may prompt you to confirm the app is from an identified developer.

Windows

  • x64: Download Workjet_x64_en-US.msi

Run the .msi installer and follow the setup wizard. Workjet will be added to your Start Menu and optionally to your Desktop.

Linux

  • AppImage: Download Workjet_amd64.AppImage — portable, no installation required
  • Debian/Ubuntu: Download Workjet_amd64.deb

AppImage

chmod +x Workjet_amd64.AppImage
./Workjet_amd64.AppImage

Debian package

sudo dpkg -i Workjet_amd64.deb
sudo apt-get install -f  # resolve any dependencies

Linux dependencies: Workjet requires WebKit2GTK 4.1 and its dependencies. On Ubuntu/Debian, install them with:

sudo apt install libwebkit2gtk-4.1-0 libgtk-3-0 libayatana-appindicator3-1

Verifying Your Installation

After installation, launch Workjet. You should see the sign-in screen. If the app launches successfully, your installation is complete.

If you encounter issues:

  • Ensure your operating system meets the minimum version requirements listed above
  • On Linux, verify that WebKit2GTK is installed: dpkg -l | grep webkit2gtk
  • On macOS, right-click the app and select "Open" if Gatekeeper blocks it
  • On Windows, run the installer as administrator if you encounter permission issues

Updating

Workjet includes an auto-updater that checks for new versions on launch. When an update is available, you'll be prompted to download and install it. Updates are applied on restart.

You can also manually download the latest version from the Workjet website at any time.

Uninstalling

  • macOS: Drag Workjet from Applications to Trash
  • Windows: Use "Add or Remove Programs" in Settings
  • Linux (deb): sudo apt remove workjet
  • Linux (AppImage): Delete the AppImage file
