About Hydra Launcher

Hydra Launcher is an open-source gaming platform built to be a single tool for managing a game library. It's written in Node.js (Electron, React, TypeScript), Python, and Rust. Users can add owned games to their library, maintain a profile visible to friends showing what they're playing, save game progress to the cloud via Hydra Cloud, unlock achievements, and browse a game catalogue powered by a suggestion algorithm for discovering new titles. The project is built from source using Node.js with Yarn, Python 3.9+, and a Rust toolchain for its native addon (hydra-native), with packaging scripts available for Windows, macOS, and Linux.
