## Ways to Use It

| Surface | Get it | Docs |
|---------|--------|------|
| **Web app** | [worldmonitor.app](https://www.worldmonitor.app) and the tech, finance, commodity, happy and energy variants | [Getting Started](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/getting-started) |
| **Desktop app** (Tauri) | Windows, macOS and Linux downloads above | [Desktop App](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/desktop-app) |
| **Terminal dashboard** | `npx worldmonitor` | [Terminal Dashboard](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/cli-dashboard) |
| **CLI** | `npm install -g worldmonitor` | [Command-Line Client](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/cli) |
| **SDKs** | Python `worldmonitor-sdk`, Ruby `worldmonitor`, Go `sdk/go` | [SDKs](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/sdks) |
| **MCP server** | `https://worldmonitor.app/mcp` | [MCP Overview](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/mcp-overview) |

The terminal dashboard runs the same live data in your shell: world map, news, markets, conflict, military flights, cyber, climate, prediction markets and live TV, with mouse support and colour themes. No API key needed.

## What It Does

- **Curated news feeds** across global and regional categories, AI-synthesized into briefs
- **Dual map engine** — 3D globe (globe.gl) and WebGL flat map (deck.gl) with a shared map-layer catalog
- **Panel inventory** — concrete panel implementations across specialized variants
- **Cross-stream correlation** — military, economic, disaster, and escalation signal convergence
- **[Country Instability Index (CII)](https://www.worldmonitor.app/country-instability-index/)** — live CII v13 scores, bands, and approximate 24-hour movement for 31 Tier-1 countries
- **Finance radar** — stock exchanges, commodities, crypto, and a market composite
- **Local AI** — run everything with Ollama, no API keys required
- **Site variants** from a single codebase (world, tech, finance, commodity, happy, energy)
- **Native desktop app** (Tauri 2) for macOS, Windows, and Linux
- **Multilingual UI** with native-language feeds and RTL support

For the full feature list, architecture, data sources, and algorithms, see the **[documentation](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/documentation)**.

## Support Status

All site variants and desktop binaries are built from a single codebase and ship from the same release process. The table below clarifies maintenance status so you know which surfaces are safe to depend on.

| Surface | Status | Notes |
|---------|--------|-------|
| `worldmonitor.app`, `tech.`, `finance.`, `commodity.`, `happy.`, `energy.` | Stable | Public deployments built from this repo, actively maintained |
| Desktop binaries (Windows / macOS Apple Silicon / macOS Intel / Linux AppImage) | Stable | One Tauri binary for every variant — install World Monitor and switch to tech, finance, commodity, energy, or happy in-app. There is deliberately no per-variant download |
| `worldmonitor` npm package (terminal dashboard and CLI) | Stable | Published from [`cli/`](cli/) on every `cli-v*` tag |

Issues filed against any of the above are triaged from the same backlog — see the [issues board](https://github.com/koala73/worldmonitor/issues) for currently-open work.

## Quick Start

```bash
git clone https://github.com/koala73/worldmonitor.git
cd worldmonitor
npm install
npm run dev
```

Open [localhost:3000](http://localhost:3000) (override the port with `DEV_PORT` in `.env.local`). The app runs with no environment variables.

Feature-specific data sources may require credentials. See `.env.example` for the full list.

For variant-specific development:

```bash
npm run dev:tech       # tech.worldmonitor.app
npm run dev:finance    # finance.worldmonitor.app
npm run dev:commodity  # commodity.worldmonitor.app
npm run dev:happy      # happy.worldmonitor.app
npm run dev:energy     # energy.worldmonitor.app
```

See the **[self-hosting guide](https://www.worldmonitor.app/docs/getting-started)** for deployment options (Vercel, Docker, static).

## Programmatic Access

World Monitor is built for agents and scripts as well as browsers:

- **MCP server** — `https://worldmonitor.app/mcp` (Streamable HTTP). Public `tools/list`; `tools/call` authenticates with a `X-WorldMonitor-Key` header or OAuth.
  The server also
