Claude Code is a Desktop app as well.
- yomismoaqui 7mo agoThe consfusing way AI companies like to name products is something to be studied.
- Oxodao 7mo agotbf they're not the only one doing so, we had 3 different "Microsoft Teams" and "Outlook" until recently...
- lancekey 7mo agoI don’t think so. IIRC the desktop app is called Claude and it has a code option in the UI.
- Mashimo 7mo agoIf you go to the product website: https://claude.com/product/claude-code https://claude.com/product/claude-code > Use Claude Code where you work > Desktop Termianl IDE WEb and iOS Slack Not that it is important any way ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
- anthuswilliams 7mo agoClaude Cowork (part of the Desktop app) is claude code, running inside a VM. Helpful writeup here: https://pvieito.com/2026/01/inside-claude-cowork https://pvieito.com/2026/01/inside-claude-cowork (I am not the author)
- embedding-shape 7mo agoOk, but "Claude Code"/"Claude Desktop" regardless is software, a tool, not a model/LLM. Doesn't make much sense as they've written it.
- Mashimo 7mo agoFor the end user who just installs the app it's probably all the same. It's not a technical document. For the user it's just important that the small grimlin that sits in the Ente app is not as smart as the grimlin that sits in the Claude app.
