Shiro is an all new, lightweight lobby primarily built on Tauri and designed specifically for Zero-K and its community. We designed and tested it from the ground up primarily focusing on main lobby features that Zero-K already has but in a more simplified and clean format, and then also worked on adding functionality that was originally separate on the website into the lobby client.

Small disclaimer: We made this for the benefit of community and also just to see what another client with more functionality could look like. We will make attempts to maintain this project, but we still recommend using the official client if you aren't looking to use something that could be considered experimental. Also, you will need to DM or ask the admins for a lobby password if you haven't set one.

Additionally, we apologize, but our program is not signed, so if you use Windows, you may get a prompt while installing. We ensure you our software is safe (you can inspect our code freely on the github as well). If there is sufficient interest/sponsors I may look at getting it signed.

* Shiro is a dual-mode lobby - it can either function as a frontend to your existing steam install if you just want to use its added functionality, or install Zero-K by itself and run things independently.
