An app shell for internal tools

Internal tools tend to multiply. A dashboard here, an admin screen there, a script with a form on top. Each one needs sign-in, a members list, and a place in the navigation. Shellui gives them that once.

How it works

Each tool is a web app that loads inside the Shellui shell. The shell draws the sidebar, settings, dialogs, and toasts. A tool talks to the shell through the Shellui SDK, so it can open a dialog or read the signed-in user without its own auth code.

• Any framework. React, Vue, Svelte, or plain HTML. Each tool keeps its own build and its own deploy.
• One navigation. Add a tool to the shell config and it shows up in the sidebar for everyone with access.
• Add or drop a tool without touching the others.

What every tool gets

• Sign-in with magic links, OAuth providers, and SAML through identity-service. SCIM keeps members in sync with your directory.
• Members and settings in the admin panel, plus webhooks for sign-in and member events.
• File storage with upload, browse, and controlled sharing through storage-service.
• Email for sign-in mail and notifications through email-service.
• Theme and language shared across every tool, with light and dark mode.

Where it runs

shellui build writes static files. Host them where you already ship, behind your VPN or on a public domain. The backend services ship as Docker images, so you can run them on your own servers. Add --app to the build and the same shell becomes a desktop app with Tauri 2.
