 ## Quick Start
 
+### Desktop app (recommended for non-technical users)
+
+Download the one-click installer from [swarmclaw.ai/downloads](https://swarmclaw.ai/downloads).
+Available for macOS (Apple Silicon & Intel), Windows, and Linux (AppImage + .deb).
+
+Current builds are unsigned, so on first launch:
+- **macOS:** right-click the app in Finder → **Open** → **Open** to bypass Gatekeeper.
+- **Windows:** if SmartScreen appears, click **More info** → **Run anyway**.
+- **Linux (AppImage):** `chmod +x` the downloaded file, then run it.
+
+Data lives in your OS app-data directory (`~/Library/Application Support/SwarmClaw`,
+`%APPDATA%\SwarmClaw`, or `~/.config/SwarmClaw`), separate from any CLI or Docker install.

 ## Releases
 
+### v1.5.36 Highlights
+
+- **Desktop app (Electron)**: SwarmClaw now ships as a native desktop app for macOS (Apple Silicon + Intel), Windows, and Linux (AppImage + .deb). Download from [swarmclaw.ai/downloads](https://swarmclaw.ai/downloads). The app wraps the existing standalone server inside an Electron shell, stores data in the OS app-data directory, and auto-updates via GitHub Releases (notify-only on unsigned macOS builds).
+- **Desktop release CI**: new `desktop-release.yml` workflow builds and publishes installers for all three platforms to GitHub Releases on every version tag.
+- **UI cleanup**: removed sibling-product navigation links from the in-app sidebar rail and login gate so the open-source app focuses on SwarmClaw itself. Those links remain in the project README and on swarmclaw.ai.
+
 ### v1.5.35 Highlights
 
 - **Update safety: prevent DB corruption on Linux**: `npm run update:easy`, `swarmclaw update`, and the in-app update endpoint now stop the running server (or checkpoint the SQLite WAL) before rebuilding native modules, preventing the WAL journal corruption that forced some Linux users back to the setup wizard.
