bb is an agentic IDE that builds itself. It can control, customize, and automate itself, laying the groundwork for your own software factory.
Every surface — the desktop app, web app, CLI, and HTTP API — is a first-class way to drive bb. Work runs in threads you can follow live, steer at any point, or hand off to another agent.
[!NOTE] bb is in active development. Core architecture is stable, but workflows and surfaces are still evolving.
Use bb
Download the desktop app
The recommended way to start using bb is the desktop app:
**[Download the latest desktop app](https://github.com/get-bb/bb/releases/tag/desktop-latest)**
The desktop app supports macOS on Apple Silicon (arm64). The Linux x64 AppImage is alpha: expect problems, and please report them. Intel Mac users should run bb with `npx` instead. On Windows, run bb inside [WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux)](https://learn.microsoft.com/windows/wsl/install): install WSL2 first, then run the same `npx` command below from your WSL2 (Linux) shell. Native Windows PowerShell and CMD are not supported.
