The problem
A developer's computer fills up with code projects — client work, products, experiments, old ideas. Keeping track of them means opening folders one by one, running the same commands over and over, and hoping nothing important was forgotten.
What Hightower does
Hightower watches the folders you choose and turns every project it finds into one live fleet. At a glance you see what changed, what is out of date, and what has been sitting untouched for months — and you can act on many projects at once, with a preflight check that skips anything unsafe. Real terminals and one-tap AI coding tools live in the same window, so the work happens where the overview is.
Where it stands
Hightower is in development as a native desktop app, with complete dark and light themes. It uses the GitHub and GitLab accounts already set up on the machine — no separate accounts, and nothing ever leaves the computer.
