Friday launches as an Electron desktop app for AI-assisted workflows, built with TypeScript, React, and provider adapters.

Friday is a desktop application (built on Electron runtime) designed to support AI-assisted workflows. It combines a TypeScript main process, React renderer, typed inter-process communication (IPC), provider adapters, connectors, skills, scheduled jobs, and local application state.

The project uses security defaults including renderer window sandboxing, context isolation, disabled Node integration, web security enforcement, and narrow typed preload APIs. Connector and tool actions that write, delete, publish, or access private data must pass explicit permission checks.

Development uses Jest and Testing Library for testing, electron-vite and electron-builder for packaging, and Tailwind CSS with shadcn-style components for UI. Code quality gates include typecheck, lint, and test commands; architecture separates main-process services (src/main), renderer code (src/renderer/src), and cross-process API contracts (src/shared and src/preload).
