DeepSeek Desktop

CI Version Language License

A cozy desktop wrapper for DeepSeek Chat — smoother, prettier, and nice to use :3

Heads up! This project is actively being worked on, so expect new things to land regularly.

If you're on a version older than 0.1.69, please update — the old updater was horrendously buggy (no GUI, pretty broken). Much better now!

Found a bug or have an idea? Open an issue — I'd love to hear from you.

DeepSeek Desktop Preview


What's Inside


Installation

  1. Grab the latest release from the Releases page
  2. Download DeepSeekChat-windows.zip
  3. Extract it somewhere nice
  4. Run DeepSeekChat.exe

The app will keep itself updated automatically — you'll get a friendly notification when there's something new :3


Features

The Nice Stuff

  • Clean, calm interface with custom footer text
  • Lovely Inter font throughout
  • Dynamic greetings that change based on time of day (500+ variations, so you won't see the same one too often)
  • Smooth fade transitions and typing animations
  • Clutter-free design that stays consistent as you navigate

Fits Your System

  • Titlebar matches your Windows theme automatically (dark or light)
  • Want to force it? You can do that too

Stays Up to Date

  • Glassmorphic update notifications when new versions drop
  • One-click to update and restart
  • Or press Ctrl+Shift+U to check manually anytime

For the Curious

  • Ctrl+Shift+S — snap a screenshot (dev mode only, saves to assets/)
  • Ctrl+Shift+L — peek at the logs
  • Ctrl+Shift+U — check for updates

Reads & Writes Well

  • Full markdown support in chats
  • Code blocks that respect your system theme
  • JetBrains Mono for code (easy on the eyes)
  • XSS protection built in

Logging That Actually Helps

  • Logs everything from startup, even when the viewer is closed
  • Keeps the last 1000 entries so memory stays happy
  • Dark-themed viewer with timestamps, search, and export options

Tips & Tricks

# Prefer dark mode?
DeepSeekChat.exe --dark-titlebar

# Prefer light mode?
DeepSeekChat.exe --light-titlebar

# Running it for real (disables debug shortcuts)
DeepSeekChat.exe --release

By default, it'll just follow your Windows theme.


What's Coming

  • Dark titlebar support
  • Keyboard shortcuts
  • Custom themes (pick your own colors!)
  • macOS and Linux builds
  • System tray integration
