# Web & Desktop App
# Web & Desktop App
Stoplight has a desktop app! Download the appropriate version [here](https://stoplight.io/download) .

Stoplight has a desktop app! Download the appropriate version [here](https://stoplight.io/download) .

## Web or Local?
When you start the Stoplight desktop app, it will start an instance of Prism on http://localhost:4010. The desktop Prism instance is identical to the downloadable Prism binary run manually from your terminal. When you run local tests in the desktop app, it automatically calls a local Prism instance with the correct arguments and spec files.
