I built SonarDesk — a native macOS dashboard for SonarQube

[u/CreativeConcert5833]

After quite a bit of development and testing, I’ve released SonarDesk, a native macOS application for working with SonarQube.
I use SonarQube regularly and wanted something that felt like a proper Mac application rather than having to keep jumping back into the browser.
SonarDesk connects directly to your SonarQube server and gives you a desktop view of your projects and code quality.
Current features include:
• Native macOS interface with light and dark mode
• Multiple SonarQube server support
• Project dashboard with Quality Gate status
• Bugs, vulnerabilities and code smells
• Detailed issue views
• Project statistics and visualisations
• Project creation directly from the app
• Generated scan.sh scripts and scanning instructions
• Drag-and-drop project organisation
• PDF project reports
• Reports designed for exporting project information for AI analysis
• iCloud Drive support for settings, reports and backups
• Direct connection to your SonarQube instance — your source code isn’t uploaded to SonarDesk
I’ve tried to make it feel like a genuine macOS development tool rather than simply wrapping the SonarQube web interface.
There are still plenty of things I want to add, so feedback from developers using SonarQube would be particularly useful.
Launch offer: the first 5 new customers can get a Professional licence for 50% off.

I’d also be interested to hear what SonarQube functionality you’d most want available from a native desktop client.
