Note

You're early — and that's the point. Vauchi is pre-alpha and under heavy development: not yet ready for production, and APIs may change without notice. If you're here now, you can help shape it — try it, break it, and tell us what's missing.

Vauchi Windows

Native Windows app for Vauchi — living contact cards, exchanged in person.

Built with WinUI 3 + C# (.NET 8). Uses vauchi-cabi C ABI bindings via P/Invoke.

Prerequisites

• Windows 10 21H2+
• .NET 8 SDK
• Visual Studio 2022 with WinUI 3 workload

Build

dotnet build Vauchi.sln
dotnet test Vauchi.Tests

Screen catalog stills

Vauchi.exe --render-catalog <catalog.json> <out-dir> replays Core's screen_catalog_v1.json through the real renderer and writes <code_id>.png and <code_id>.dark.png per screen at 1440x900, without starting the Core engine. CI runs it as test:screen-catalog.

Architecture

This app is a display-only shell: core emits generic, fully prepared presentation commands, and the app reports opaque events back.

• PresentationHost (CoreUI/PresentationHost.xaml) renders core's presentation commands (JSON via C ABI) with WinUI controls
• PresentationEvents (CoreUI/PresentationEvents.cs) reports user input to core as opaque event JSON
• VauchiNative.cs wraps C ABI via LibraryImport + System.Text.Json
• Platform chrome: taskbar, notifications, MSIX packaging

All business logic lives in vauchi-core (Rust). This repo is a pure rendering layer.
