Yab - Yet Another Browser, a free macOS browser that feels like Arc, with your own AI agent built in.

A nice alternative for those migrating from Arc, which was recently shut down: it imports your spaces, pins and folders as they were, and keeps Peek, Split View and the ⌘T flow. Runs on the system WebKit (no extra Chromium, easier on battery), and Claude Code, Codex or Cursor can drive it via MCP or the yab CLI.

OpenIDEA - (★ 1k) is an attempt to create a lightweight free clone of IntelliJ IDEA on Rust.

Same keymap, tool windows and search-everywhere, but in a fast native Tauri app: editor, code insight, debugger, Git, terminal, database and HTTP clients for 60+ languages. Their benchmark claims 169 MB of RAM vs ~2 GB for IDEA and 1.1 s to ready vs 13.2 s.

ThinkRail - (★ 1.6k at GitHub) is an agentic IDE from JetBrains, built around the pi coding agent.

An open-source JetBrains InnovationHub project. Every workspace is a real git worktree with its own branch, so you can run several agents in parallel without touching main. The project's intent lives in a graph of spec files that the agent reads and maintains. Monaco tabs, terminals and diffs are all in one window. Runs on macOS, Windows and Linux, as a desktop app or in the browser.
