What Hacker News says
6 sourcesHello folks.
Like a lot of great software, we built OctoPunk out of frustration.
We are a set of developers who, for one reason or another, have been using GitHub as our primary code forge for professional work for a very long time.
We've seen GitHub grow, stagnate, ignore feature requests, and simply never produce a full-featured desktop client.
Finally, we had enough, decided to build our own, and OctoPunk was born.
OctoPunk is not a git GUI wrapper like GitKraken, not a half-implemented desktop client like GitHub's official client, which doesn't support code review, and not something that ignores complete workflows like per-commit reviews, looking at you, VS Code extension (https://github.com/microsoft/vscode-pull-request-github/issu...).
OctoPunk is a full-featured GitHub client that surfaces 95% of GitHub's functionality as a desktop

client, presented through a UI and UX that feels instantly familiar to modern editors and developer tools. We provide a customizable dashboard, quick search widgets, desktop notifications, and even an AI assistant that optionally understands what you're looking at and can help explain comments, draft responses, and more.
OctoPunk got its name not just from the software we are building, but from the mentality of the company. We are a tiny team that doesn't subscribe to big tech practices. We plan on staying small, independent, and nimble.
Anyway, if you're looking for a desktop-native and productivity-focused GitHub client, give us a try.
We are currently in beta and looking for feedback, feature requests, and bug reports, all of which can be conveniently sent from within OctoPunk itself.
All of OctoPunk is free for public repositories and requires a subscription for private ones. That's our only monetization model: no dark patterns, no data harvesting, and we promise to always keep it simple.
