Trying Konjugate in your browser

Konjugate Web is a free trial of Konjugate that runs in a browser tab at web.konjugate.com. There is nothing to install and nothing to sign up for. It is the quickest way to see what building a model as a graph feels like before deciding whether the desktop app is worth installing.

It is a trial and not the whole product, and it says so itself. This page covers what you get, what you do not, and when to move to the desktop app.

What you see when it opens

The page loads the same workbench as the desktop app: the canvas, the add palette, the Examples menu, the parameters table and the result tools. A banner across the top states the limits plainly:

While the banner is showing it sits over the title bar, so dismiss it with the cross at its right before reaching for the buttons underneath.

What it is good for

• Looking around. Open an example from the Examples menu and look at how a real model is put together, then follow "Getting started with Konjugate" to build your own in about five minutes.
• Small models. Nodes, states, relationships and equations are built in the same editor as on the desktop.
• Python. A relationship can be written in Python, and the page checks the code before a run.
• Saving your work. Projects save to and open from a file, including encrypted ones, and are interchangeable with the desktop app, so a model started in the browser opens on the desktop later.

What it does not do yet

The banner lists the main gaps, and the project's own notes add a few details:

• Run is batch-only where a page is not served in the way that lets it share memory between threads. A run is computed in the background and then played back as a finished result. There is no live progress and no changing a parameter in the middle of a run. A browser that does serve the page that way can run live, and can use several threads for large models, but the trial does not promise it.
• No C++ providers. A relationship written in C++ needs a compiler, and the in-browser compiler does not work reliably yet. Python providers do work.
• No FMU import or export. FMU import is a desktop feature by design, since it loads compiled binaries from your own computer.
• No add-ons or plugins. The Extensions dialog's installed packages, and so toolboxes such as Fintech and Logistics, are desktop features for now.
• No AI-assisted authoring. The model assistant is not available, including the built-in demonstration configuration that needs no key.

When to move to the desktop app

Move when you want any of the list above, when a model gets big enough that you want the engine running natively, or when you want a toolbox. "Installing and updating Konjugate" covers the routes. Your project files carry over unchanged.
