Downloads
Download YWSH apps and related tools. NL
The website stays the system of record; desktop and browser clients sync with your account.
Windows app
YourWebStartsHere installer (MSI)
YourWebStartsHere Installer (exe)
The YWSH Windows tray app syncs text snippets from the website and expands shortcuts while you type in other programs.
- Install the app, then sign in with your YWSH account (browser OAuth).
- Keep the app running (tray) so the website can sync snippet changes automatically.
- If the dashboard shows that the Windows app is not active, start or reinstall it from this page.
Recommended: YWSH-Setup.exe — installs the .NET 8 Desktop Runtime silently when needed, then installs the app. If the runtime install fails, install .NET 8 Desktop Runtime (x64) manually and run Setup again.
Also available: YWSH.msi (requires .NET 8 Desktop already present; the MSI shows a message with the download link if it is missing) and YWSH-portable-win-x64.zip (run YWSH.exe; it tries a silent runtime install, then prompts with the download link if that fails).
Release builds are produced from the Windows repo with pwsh tools/build-installers.ps1 → artifacts/installers/. Public download links will be published here when the release build is uploaded.
Browser extension
The Chromium extension saves bookmarks into your YWSH dashboard from the current tab. Load it as an unpacked extension from the project’s extensions/ywsh-browser-extension/Chromium folder while developing, or install from the store listing when published.
