# Create with Desktop App

### What is the Supademo desktop app?

The Supademo Desktop App lets you capture high-quality interactive demos of your entire desktop window—including native desktop applications, mobile emulators, terminal windows, or code editors.

Whether you're on Mac or Windows (coming soon), the Desktop App gives you flexibility beyond just browser-based recordings.

After recording, your demo is instantly editable within the Supademo editor—just like recordings from the [Chrome Extension](https://docs.supademo.com/create/by-method/create-with-chrome-extension), [Figma plugin](https://docs.supademo.com/create/by-method/create-with-figma-plugin), or manual [uploads](https://docs.supademo.com/create/by-method/create-from-uploads).
