# Install Tamery

> Download the Tamery desktop app for macOS, Windows, or Linux, or install the CLI via npm.

Tamery comes in three forms — web, desktop, and CLI. All share the same account and cloud-synced connections.

<Note>
  The desktop app is recommended for most users. It runs a local proxy, so localhost and
  private-network databases work without extra setup.
</Note>

## Web

No install. Open [tamery.app](https://tamery.app), sign in, and connect.

<Tip>
  To reach local databases from the web app, run `tamery proxy` (see the [CLI](/cli/overview)) and
  point a connection at it.
