Description
Zeltro is a desktop app for building and running apps on your own computer. It doesn't sell AI. You plug in the key or plan you already have (Claude, ChatGPT, OpenRouter) or a free local model, and pay the provider's own price with no markup or credits. Describe an app or pick from 214 ready made ones, and your AI builds it right next to your other projects. Free for personal use.

Could you build this?
Partial While an Electron-based GUI running prompts against BYO-API keys is approachable, managing sandboxed code execution, local runtime environments, and dependable app scaffolding locally is technically challenging.
What it would actually take: Requires an Electron or Tauri desktop wrapper orchestrating isolated containerized or WebAssembly/Node runtimes to safely build and execute generated code locally. The hard parts are state isolation, dependency resolution on diverse end-user operating systems, and building robust multi-step agents that reliably generate full-stack mini-applications.
