View ExtensionsKeeping our ecosystem beautiful
Powerful and familiar tooling
Extensions are built with TypeScript, React and Node. Leverage npm's ecosystem to quickly build what you imagine.
No-brainer to build UI
You concentrate on the logic, we push the pixels. Use our built-in UI components to be consistent with all our extensions.
Collaborate with our community
Build your extension, share it with our community and get inspired by others.
A developer-first experience
A strongly typed API, hot-reloading and modern tooling that make it a blast to work with.
Easy to start, flexible to scale
Start with a simple script, add a static UI or use React to go wild. Anything goes.
Publish to the world
Submit your extension to the Raycast Store for thousands of Raycast users to use as part of their daily process.
