GPUIX: React Without the Web View
Documentation for building native GPU-accelerated desktop apps with React, TypeScript, and Zed's GPUI framework.
Field notes
GPUIX's documented setup combines React's JSX model with GPUI-specific types and elements, including <virtual-list>, <markdown>, and <code>. Development uses bun --hot to remount React in the same window, while the documented compile command produces a binary intended to run without Bun or Node. The examples extend beyond a counter or hello-world screen: they include a one-file todo app, a chat interface, and a video-editor timeline with dragging, trimming, and playhead scrubbing.
