What it is

The current product truth

Aion keeps the product in the browser and the runtime on the local machine. aion-ctrl handles install, play, doctor, repair, backup, and restore. The current Linux beta now ships a desktop launcher shell, while aion-web remains the product UI you use after the runtime is healthy.

What it is not

No native installer promise in the current public beta

The current Linux beta can install a desktop launcher, but it still uses a bootstrap installer and a browser-based product surface. This is not yet a native installer or a cross-platform desktop product.

How it works

Download, install, open Aion

01

Download

Use the Linux bootstrap artifact and verify the published checksum before running it.

02

Install

The bootstrap validates Linux support, Docker, Compose, disk, memory, manifest compatibility, and the public runtime contract.

03

Open

The runtime starts locally, doctor verifies health, and the Linux launcher opens the current Aion desktop shell. From there you can open the web product UI.

Runtime surface

The first public distribution includes

Chat and AI workflows

Remote LLM or local Ollama profiles managed by the runtime.

Dashboard and analytics

The current aion-web interface remains the canonical product surface.

Local operations

Status, doctor, repair, backup, and restore stay available.

Release contract

Manifest, checksum, release notes, and versioned runtime images.

FAQ

What users need to know first

Does Aion run as a native desktop app in the current public beta?

No. The installer sets up the local runtime and opens the web UI.

Where does the runtime live?

The public runtime and local state live under ~/.aion.

What should I run if something looks broken?

Use aion-ctrl status, aion-ctrl doctor, and aion-ctrl repair.

Can I keep my data local?

Yes. The current public runtime is local-first and keeps user state on the machine.
