Tonk is a simple toolchain for better vibe coding that helps you build and share applets that integrate with your data and embed into your daily life.
It's for creative people of all stripes - you just need basic coding ability.

AI makes it easier for people to understand the world, but not necessarily their world. Coding copilots make it easier for people to build static websites, but it's still tricky for local experts to embed AI into their idiosyncratic daily lives.
In spite of that, future-facing people with basic coding ability are scraping data, organising files and running it all through LLMs to get smarter, faster and more creative.
Setting up that infrastructure is painful. What if it were simple?
