Flash is a local coding agent. It runs on your machine, on your models, through Ollama, with a terminal UI and a web UI.
Tonight I tried to make the web UI look like other apps. One at a time.
The lineup
- Claude. Serif replies, a new greeting. Reverted. I like my font.
- Oh my pi. A powerline status bar, tool calls as terminal lines. Reverted. Cool, but not Flash.
- Qwen. A single pill for the input, a round send button, the model picker up top. Reverted.
- A time-of-day background. Sunrise in the morning, city lights at night. Reverted.
- Poolside Desktop. A floating panel, chats nested under projects. Kept.
One out of five. That's the release.
What shipped in 0.5.10
- The conversation sits in a rounded panel, inset from the window.
- Chats are grouped under their projects in the sidebar, and each project folds away.
- The current chat has an outlined highlight that glides when you switch.
- The new project form suggests folders as you type.
~/Dshows Desktop, Documents, and Downloads. - The message box gets a focus ring.
- A stray glow line in one dialog is gone.
The lesson
Trying a design costs a few minutes. Keeping the wrong one costs a lot more.
So try everything. Look at it for real, in both themes, on a phone. Then keep only what still feels right the next time you open the app.
Revert is a feature.
Try it
