VLDTION Desktop

A local desktop application. You download it, install it on the accountant’s own machine, and it reads your exports from disk. Every record, finding, reconciliation and note lives in a database file on that computer. There is no account, no workspace to log into, and nothing to upload.

Version: 0.6.0
Stage: 0.6.0 release candidate
Built for: Linux, Windows

Latest development build

Unsigned development build

Local rate register, subledger reconciliation, engagement completion and the working-paper index. Built and installed on Windows and Linux; unsigned, because no code-signing certificate is held.

Not published: build from source

macOS

Not released · never built

Never built and never tested: no macOS machine was available. The Tauri configuration would produce a bundle, but an untested build is not a release, and VLDTION does not claim a platform it has not compiled for.

Requirements

macOS 12 or later
Apple silicon or Intel

Nothing to download

What produced these artefacts

Build host: local/win32
Node: v24.13.1
Rust: rustc 1.97.1 (8bab26f4f 2026-07-14)
Tauri CLI: 2.11.5
Architecture: x64
Commit: 29fa8c6e1046

Recorded by the script that hashed the files, so a digest above can be traced to the environment that produced it rather than to somebody’s recollection of one.

Why there is no download button

None of these artefacts is signed. No code-signing certificate is held, and an unsigned installer is not something to hand to a practice that handles client data. The digests above are here so that a build you produce yourself can be checked against the build described here: not as a substitute for a signature.

Build it yourself with npm run desktop:build. The procedure, the toolchain versions and the exact environment restrictions are recorded in docs/desktop-build.md.

How the desktop build works Ask about a signed build

This page is generated from public/releases/latest.json, which the release script writes by reading each artefact: its size, its SHA-256 and its signature state all come from the file itself. A platform with no artefact says so rather than showing a button that does nothing.

What installing gives you

A real database file

Records, runs, reconciliations and notes live in vldtion.db in the application data folder, which you can back up, copy or move.

System file dialogs

Imports and exports go through the operating system's own dialogs and real paths, not a browser sandbox.

It works offline

Import, validate, reconcile, investigate, document, back up and restore all run with the machine disconnected.

No account

No sign-up, no workspace, no licence server and no telemetry between you and the software.

VLDTION processes accounting data locally. That describes the architecture of the software, not a security certification, and no accreditation is claimed. See data handling for the specifics.
