### Desktop Apps for Guides & Surveys

Alex Baumhoer

**Description:** Adds the ability to create a Desktop app (e.g. an Electron app) within the G\&S project settings. This enables us to support desktop-specific workflows for Guides and Surveys

**Why:** Desktop-type apps have different requirements than a standard web app. By letting our users specify a guide or survey is intended for their desktop apps we'll be able to tailor different experiences and setup appropriately within the dashboard.

**Where:** Users can enable a desktop app via their Guides & Surveys project settings. You can then experience the new preview flow by creating a desktop-type guide or survey and starting preview as usual.

**Available in EUDC:** Yes

**When:** Available now!

**Useful Resources:** [Guides and Surveys instrumentation docs](https://amplitude.com/docs/guides-and-surveys/sdk#preview-mode-for-desktop-apps)
