vued.ai/app Desktop Download Brief

Add a macOS desktop install CTA to vued.ai/app.

Release Source

The desktop release pipeline uploads a public Supabase Storage manifest:
https://<project-ref>.supabase.co/storage/v1/object/public/downloads/desktop/macos/latest.json
Expected shape:
{
  "product": "Vued",
  "version": "0.1.0",
  "platform": "macos",
  "channel": "latest",
  "updatedAt": "2026-06-26T00:00:00.000Z",
  "downloadUrl": "https://.../desktop/macos/0.1.0/Vued-0.1.0-arm64.dmg",
  "artifacts": []
}
Use downloadUrl as the primary CTA href. Do not hard-code a versioned DMG URL in the page.

UX Copy

Primary button:
Download for Mac
Install note:
Open the DMG, then drag Vued into Applications.
Optional metadata:
Version 0.1.0
Apple Silicon Mac

Behavior

  • Fetch latest.json client-side or server-side.
  • If the manifest fetch fails, show the CTA disabled with Download unavailable.
  • Link to the DMG directly; browsers will download it.
  • Keep the CTA visible on non-macOS devices, but label it clearly as Mac-only.
  • The bucket is public for reads. Never expose SUPABASE_SERVICE_ROLE_KEY in the web app.
  • If you want a stable branded URL, add a route like /api/download/mac that redirects to latest.json.downloadUrl.

Cache Expectations

  • latest.json should be low-cache, roughly 60 seconds.
  • Versioned DMG/ZIP paths should be long-cache, roughly one year.
  • The page can revalidate every minute if rendered server-side.
