Встановити Lolly

You may not need to install anything: lolly.tools runs in a current browser that supports WebGPU (which browsers). Install the app when you want Lolly in your dock or app menu, with native file dialogs and a copy that keeps working with the network unplugged. It is the same app either way: the same tools, the same design systems and the same files out.

Pick your device

Your device	Get	Version
Mac with Apple silicon (M1 and later)	`lolly-latest.dmg`	1.1.1
Mac with Intel	`lolly-latest-x64.dmg`	1.1.0
iPhone and iPad	Lolly Tools on the App Store	1.1.1
Android	`lolly-latest.apk`	1.1.0
Windows	`lolly-latest.exe`	1.1.0
Linux	Flatpak, RPM, `.deb`, Arch or AppImage	1.1.0
Your own server	YunoHost or a container image	1.1.1 and 1.1.2

lolly.tools always has the newest version. The 1.1.0 builds stay at 1.1.0 until each platform's web view passes the WebGPU check that later versions need. Every file links straight to lolli.li: a lolly-latest.* link always points at the newest build, and versioned files beside it never change. You can check any file against the published checksums.

Updates

Signed system repositories (openSUSE OBS, Flathub) are planned. Until they land, a direct .rpm, .deb, .flatpak bundle or AppImage does not update itself, so check back here for a newer build. The Arch repository updates through pacman, and the App Store keeps the iPhone and iPad app current.

Mac

Apple silicon and Intel, .dmg. macOS 13.5 or later.

Download the disk image, open it and drag Lolly to Applications. The current downloads are version 1.1.1 for Apple silicon and 1.1.0 for Intel. The app carries its own engine and tool catalogue, and its bundled terminal tools need the same macOS version.

Apple silicon: lolly-latest.dmg, version 1.1.1.
Intel: lolly-latest-x64.dmg, version 1.1.0.
Versioned: https://lolli.li/Lolly_<version>_aarch64.dmg and https://lolli.li/Lolly_<version>_x64.dmg, pinned and never overwritten.

iPhone and iPad

iOS and iPadOS 26 or later. From the App Store.

Lolly for iPhone and iPad is Lolly Tools on the App Store. The App Store signs the app and keeps it up to date, so there is no separate file to download or check.

You can also open the web app in Safari. Share, then Add to Home Screen gives the web app an icon of its own. The web app needs WebGPU; supported environments lists what has been tested so far. To build and sign the app yourself, see Building for iOS.

Android

Phone and tablet, .apk, installed directly. Android 7.0 or later, arm64-v8a.

There is no store and no store account. Download the APK, open it and allow your browser or file manager to install applications this once. Android asks first: that prompt is the system working correctly, not a warning about this file.

Download: lolly-latest.apk, version 1.1.0.
Versioned: https://lolli.li/Lolly-<version>.apk.

Check the file against SHA256SUMS.txt before you install the APK. Newer versions are held back from Android because Android 11's web view has no WebGPU adapter, and Android 12 or later has not been checked yet.

Windows

x64, an installer. Version 1.1.0.

Download lolly-latest.exe (an NSIS installer) or lolly-latest.msi. The installers are not code-signed yet, so Windows SmartScreen warns before the first run. Compare the file with SHA256SUMS.txt before you allow the install.

Linux

Every Linux build is version 1.1.0, x86_64 unless the section says otherwise. Pick the one for your distribution:

You run	Get
openSUSE Tumbleweed	The Tumbleweed RPM
openSUSE Leap 16	The Leap 16 RPM
Debian, Ubuntu and derivatives	The `.deb`, for amd64 or arm64
Arch and derivatives	The pacman repository
Fedora, Leap 15.6, an immutable desktop or anything else	The Flatpak

Tumbleweed

sudo zypper install https://lolli.li/lolly-latest.rpm

Or download lolly-latest.rpm and install the file directly. The versioned build sits beside it, for example https://lolli.li/lolly-desktop-<version>-0.x86_64.rpm. The package build is described in shells/tauri-desktop/rpm/README.md.

Leap

Leap 16 has its own build:

sudo zypper install https://lolli.li/lolly-latest-leap16.rpm

The Tumbleweed RPM is compiled against a newer glibc and refuses to install on Leap 16 with nothing provides 'libm.so.6(GLIBC_2.43)'. The two packages are otherwise identical. The versioned build is, for example, https://lolli.li/lolly-desktop-<version>-0.leap16.x86_64.rpm.

Why Leap 15.6 has no RPM

The dependency tree needs Rust 1.88 or newer, and 15.6's default toolchain is older. Supporting it would mean pinning a second Rust toolchain into the project and keeping two build stories. Tumbleweed and Leap 16 are the supported pair; on 15.6, use the Flatpak.

Debian and Ubuntu

# amd64 (Intel and AMD)
curl -LO https://lolli.li/lolly-latest.deb && sudo apt install ./lolly-latest.deb
# arm64 (ARM servers, Raspberry Pi, ARM VMs)
curl -LO https://lolli.li/lolly-latest-arm64.deb && sudo apt install ./lolly-latest-arm64.deb

Versioned files sit beside them, for example https://lolli.li/lolly-desktop-<version>_amd64.deb and lolly-desktop-<version>_arm64.deb.

Arch

Add the Lolly repository to /etc/pacman.conf:

[lolly]
SigLevel = Optional TrustAll
Server = https://lolli.li/arch/$arch

Then install, and from here on update, with pacman itself:

sudo pacman -Syu lolly-desktop-bin

The SigLevel line is needed because the repository is not GPG-signed yet; it scopes that exception to this one repository. The package repacks the official desktop version pinned in its recipe and installs the whole desktop integration: the .lolly file type, lolly:// links, the thumbnailer, the GNOME Shell search provider, the D-Bus services and the KDE service menu.

Building the Arch package by hand, and Hyprland

An AUR package under the same name is planned once AUR account registration reopens. The recipe is in shells/tauri-desktop/linux/arch/, and you can build it today:

git clone https://github.com/lolly-tools/lolly.git
cd lolly/shells/tauri-desktop/linux/arch && makepkg -si

On Hyprland and other wlroots compositors, the colour picker and the wallpaper feature go through the desktop portal, so an xdg-desktop-portal backend must be running (Hyprland ships its own). The desktop search integration is a GNOME and KDE feature.

Flatpak

The Flatpak brings its own runtime, so it works on any distribution, whatever it ships:

curl -LO https://lolli.li/lolly-latest.flatpak
flatpak install --user ./lolly-latest.flatpak
flatpak run tools.lolly.Desktop

The app id is tools.lolly.Desktop and the runtime is org.gnome.Platform version 50. The manifest and the local build steps are in shells/tauri-desktop/flatpak/README.md.

AppImage

lolly-latest.AppImage comes out of the same desktop build. Make the file executable and run it directly. The Flatpak is the supported cross-distribution package; the AppImage is there when you need a single file.

Your own server

YunoHost

On a YunoHost server, install Lolly from its app package:

sudo yunohost app install https://github.com/lolly-tools/lolly_ynh

The package serves the same web app, version 1.1.1, from a domain of your own, with the same security headers as lolly.tools. It needs a whole domain, keeps nothing on the server and fetches the on-device models from lolli.li the first time a tool asks for one. The YunoHost section of the deployment guide covers what the package installs and how access works.

A container image

The signed web image, ghcr.io/lolly-tools/lolly-web, serves the same app lolly.tools runs, version 1.1.2. A static bundle behind any web server works too, including an air-gapped one. Deployment covers both, and which suits rolling Lolly out to other people.

For developers

The terminal, the SDK, the browser extension and building it yourself

Surface	How you get it
Terminal	`pnpm run cli` in a checkout. The same engine, headless; the desktop app carries the same CLI. See the CLI guide.
Terminal, interactive	`pnpm run tui` in a checkout. A full-screen terminal interface on the same engine. See the TUI guide.
Tool-author SDK	`npm i -D @lolly-tools/core`. The `HostV1` contract types, the manifest validator and a mock host for testing a tool without the app or a clone of the repository. See Publish and localize a tool.
Browser extension	Load unpacked. See Browser extension.

To build the desktop app yourself on a Mac:

git clone https://github.com/lolly-tools/lolly.git
cd lolly && pnpm install
pnpm -C shells/tauri-desktop install --frozen-lockfile

Configure catalog signing as described in the Build Guide, then build:

LOLLY_PROFILE=lolly-demo LOLLY_EMBED_CATALOG=profile pnpm run build:desktop

The app is written to shells/tauri-desktop/src-tauri/target/release/bundle/macos/. It opens with Lolly Demo, and Lolly Starter, a blank design system to make your own, is already on the device to switch to. pnpm run build:desktop builds the Windows installers on Windows, and pnpm run build:android in shells/tauri-mobile builds the APK; the Build Guide lists the prerequisites for each.

Checking what you downloaded

Every release publishes a checksums file at https://lolli.li/SHA256SUMS.txt. Put it next to your file, then:

curl -LO https://lolli.li/SHA256SUMS.txt
sha256sum --check --ignore-missing SHA256SUMS.txt

A line reading OK means the file on your disk is byte for byte the file the build produced. A lolly-latest.* file is a copy of the current versioned build, so it carries that build's hash: compare the value, not the name, if you kept the latest name. A mismatch means the file changed somewhere between there and here. Download it again rather than installing it anyway.

The files Lolly itself makes carry their own seal, a separate and stronger check: see Verify It Yourself.
