About Ixio

A modern, open-source solution for safe and reliable USB flashing

Our Mission

Ixio is a modern, user-friendly desktop application for flashing ISO files to USB drives across Windows, macOS, and Linux. Our mission is to provide a comprehensive, safe, and reliable solution for creating bootable USB drives that's accessible to everyone.

We believe that powerful tools should be free and open source. Ixio combines advanced features like multi-device support, automatic ISO detection, and comprehensive safety controls with an intuitive interface that makes USB flashing simple and stress-free.

Built with modern technologies and a focus on user experience, Ixio aims to be the go-to USB flashing tool for developers, system administrators, and everyday users who need to create bootable USB drives quickly and safely.

Technology Stack

Ixio is built with cutting-edge technologies that ensure performance, reliability, and cross-platform compatibility.

Tauri v2

Modern framework for building lightweight, secure desktop applications with web technologies and Rust.

SvelteKit

Fast, reactive frontend framework that compiles to highly optimized vanilla JavaScript for superior performance.

Rust

Systems programming language that guarantees memory safety and thread safety, ensuring reliable low-level operations.

TS

TypeScript

Strongly typed programming language that builds on JavaScript, providing better tooling and error detection.

Why These Technologies?

  • Performance: Rust backend ensures blazing-fast disk operations with minimal overhead
  • Security: Tauri's security model and Rust's memory safety prevent common vulnerabilities
  • Cross-Platform: Single codebase runs natively on Windows, macOS, and Linux
  • Modern UI: SvelteKit provides a responsive, accessible interface with smooth animations
  • Type Safety: TypeScript catches errors at compile-time, improving code quality
