Maui

Maui is an open source desktop application providing a user interface for the free Wolfram Engine. It supports both textual and graphical output.


Maui works macOS, Ubuntu, and Windows.

Dependencies

Maui has two main dependencies:

The WSTP C API is included with the Wolfram Engine which is free for personal use. Before attempting to build Maui, download and install the Wolfram Engine. For assistance, see the official setup guide.

Build instructions

Once all dependencies are installed, simply use CMake to generate the appropriate build environment, then build Maui:

cmake -S . -B build -DWSTP_API_PATH="..." # -GNinja
cmake --build build

If the WSTP C API headers and libraries are already in your system paths (which is unlikely), then passing the -DWSTP_API_PATH option to CMake is not needed.

Setup and usage

If you have not yet launched the Wolfram Engine CLI, go ahead and do so, making sure to complete the activation process. Maui will not work if the Wolfram Engine is not activated.

Upon launching Maui for the first time, a configuration dialog will appear. You will need to specify the path of the Wolfram Kernel to use as the backend.


If you would like Maui to remember your choice, check the "Use as default kernel" checkbox.

Upon pressing the "Launch" button, the main Maui window will appear and you can begin working.

Contribution guidelines

Contributions are welcome! All code is formatted with clang-format using the built-in "WebKit" preset; please ensure your code is formatted when submitting a pull request.
