Show HN: Memex is a Claude Code alternative built on Rust+Tauri for vibe coding

Hi HN,

TL;DR Memex is a cross-platform desktop app for vibe coding. Think ChatGPT + Claude Code rolled into one.

Why we built it: We love chat tools like Perplexity and ChatGPT. We also love coding agents, like in Cursor and Windsurf. We don’t like that web-based app builders are opinionated about tech stack and we can’t run them locally. So, we built Memex to be a chat tool + coding agent that supports any tech stack.

What it can do today: Claude Code-like coding. Agentic web search / research. Pre-built templates (e.g. fullstack, iOS, python + modal, etc). Inline data analysis + viz. Checkpointing (shadow git repo). Privacy mode.

How it works: Written in TS+Rust+Python, using Tauri for the cross-platform build (macOS, Windows, Linux). It has a bundled python environment for data analysis. Agent uses a mix of Sonnet 3.7 + Haiku.

Status & roadmap: Free download with free tier and paid plan: https://memex.tech. Up next: [1] Additional model support (e.g. Gemini 2.5). [2] MCP support. [3] Computer use.

Ask: Kick the tires. Give us feedback on product + roadmap. If you love it – spread the word!

Thanks! David
