  • 🎨 Beautiful UI: Material Theme icons, dark mode, and a clean macOS-native interface.
  • 🐙 Git Integration: Seamless GitHub login, repository browsing (User/Org), and cloning.
  • 🔒 Secure & Isolated: All dependencies and files stay inside the container. No local node_modules or venvs.
  • ⌨️ Developer Friendly: Line numbers, breadcrumbs, and status bar info.
