* fix anti csrft on v2

* fix file extensions, app icons

* fold in v1 fixes from origin/main into v2 equivalents

Re-applies the v1 fixes that landed on origin/main into their v2
counterparts since the v1 files were deleted on DS/wip during the v2
migration. v1 commits referenced below.

- SQLBatcher: flush immediately when queue hits maxBatchSize instead
  of racing the timer (v1 12f48238).
- RedisClient: drop maxRetriesPerRequest from 2 to 1 to shrink failure
  window (v1 b6776ab4).
- ChatCompletionDriver: default minimumCredits to 1 when unset/zero so
  zero-cost precheck doesn't auto-pass (v1 36bd6073).
- OpenAiImageProvider: add gpt-image-2 support — open-ended size rules,
  token-based cost estimator, arbitrary-size normalizer, isGpt prefix
  broadened to gpt-image- (v1 f14f1bf4). models.ts auto-merged via
  rename detection.
- AppStore: bump row cache TTL from 5m to 24h (v1 6b3196ed).

Not ported: v1 app-object Redis cache (bdfa12b5/b886dde3) — v2's
#toClient recomputes filetype_associations/created_from_origin per
read; adding a second cache layer is a larger change for a follow-up.

  • A platform for building and publishing websites, web apps, and games.
  • An alternative to Dropbox, Google Drive, OneDrive, etc. with a fresh interface and powerful features.
  • A remote desktop environment for servers and workstations.
  • A friendly, open-source project and community to learn about web development, cloud computing, distributed systems, and much more!

Getting Started

💻 Local Development

git clone https://github.com/HeyPuter/puter
cd puter
npm install
npm start

This should launch Puter at http://puter.localhost:4100 (or the next available port).

If this does not work, see First Run Issues for troubleshooting steps.


🐳 Docker

mkdir puter && cd puter && mkdir -p puter/config puter/data && sudo chown -R 1000:1000 puter && docker run --rm -p 4100:4100 -v `pwd`/puter/config:/etc/puter -v `pwd`/puter/data:/var/puter  ghcr.io/heyputer/puter

This should launch Puter at http://puter.localhost:4100 (or the next available port).


🐙 Docker Compose

Linux/macOS

mkdir -p puter/config puter/data
sudo chown -R 1000:1000 puter
wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HeyPuter/puter/main/docker-compose.yml
docker compose up

This should be available at http://puter.localhost:4100 (or the next available port).


Windows

mkdir -p puter
cd puter
New-Item -Path "puter\config" -ItemType Directory -Force
New-Item -Path "puter\data" -ItemType Directory -Force
Invoke-WebRequest -Uri "https://raw.githubusercontent.com/HeyPuter/puter/main/docker-compose.yml" -OutFile "docker-compose.yml"
docker compose up

This should launch Puter at http://puter.localhost:4100 (or the next available port).
