How it works

Celerp runs entirely on your machine. Your data never leaves your computer.

• No setup - the desktop app bundles Postgres, runs migrations on launch, opens in your browser
• No lock-in - your data stays in a standard Postgres database you control
• Teams - run as a local server, teammates connect over the LAN

Architecture

• Event-sourced - every change is an immutable ledger entry, projections materialize queryable state
• Modular - each domain is a plugin with its own models, routes, and projections
• Python/FastAPI backend, FastHTML UI, embedded PostgreSQL
• SQLite in-memory for tests - no external dependencies to run the test suite

---

Development

git clone [e-mail]:celerp/celerp.git
cd celerp
python3 -m venv .venv && source .venv/bin/activate
pip install -e ".[dev]"
sudo celerp init   # creates DB, runs migrations, starts servers

Open http://localhost:8080. Run tests with pytest tests/.

See CONTRIBUTING.md for environment variables, troubleshooting, and coding guidelines.
