We're thrilled to announce Your Poker — a professional-grade desktop application for managing poker tournaments, leagues, and player statistics. Built from the ground up with modern technology, Your Poker brings together everything a tournament director needs in one powerful, offline-first package.
Why We Built This
Running a poker tournament involves juggling dozens of moving parts: player registration, blind schedules, seating assignments, payout calculations, live displays, and more. Most existing solutions are either web-based (requiring internet), outdated, or missing critical features. We set out to build something better.
Your Poker is a native desktop application — it runs on Windows, macOS, and Linux, works completely offline, and stores all your data locally. No accounts, no subscriptions for the free tier, no internet dependency.
The Technology Behind It
We chose Tauri 2.0 as our application framework, combining a Rust backend with a React frontend. This gives us:
- Native performance — Rust handles all data processing, database operations, and the embedded web server
- Modern UI — React 18 with TypeScript, Tailwind CSS, and Shadcn/ui components deliver a polished, responsive interface
- Small footprint — Tauri apps are significantly smaller than Electron alternatives
- SQLite database — Fast, reliable, zero-configuration local storage
What's Included
Even in this initial release, Your Poker comes packed with features:
- Full tournament lifecycle management
- Customisable blind timer with automatic progression
- Player database with statistics tracking
- Automated payout calculations
- Live display broadcasting via WebSocket
- League and season management
- Detailed reports with CSV export
- Support for 8 languages and 33 currencies
We're just getting started, and we have ambitious plans for what comes next. Download Your Poker free and start running better tournaments today.
