Astur is an open-source toolkit for mobile UI test automation — write tests like you would with Playwright, no Appium server. In this demo I walk through codegen: point it at a running app, tap through a flow, and Astur generates the test for you.

Astur — One Script to Test Any Mobile App (No Appium, No WebDriver)
One script runs across Android, iOS, Flutter and React Native — native or hybrid, it doesn't matter. No Appium. No WebDriver. No proxy in between. Astur drives the device directly, so it's faster and there are fewer moving parts to break.
Astur in action: The new generation of mobile automation testing.
Astur runs tests natively on Android and iOS through each platform's own engine, with an api that feels like Playwright and no Appium server in the middle. if you've written web tests with Playwright, this will feel familiar.
Beyond Text: A Multimodal RAG System Across Video, Audio, Images & Text
What’s the most fearless animal on Earth? That's the question I used to test my latest project and it led to something bigger: chatting with your data now actually means all your data. I've been experimenting with Multimodal (Gemini Embedding 2) in a RAG system that goes far beyond PDFs and text. It creates unified embeddings across: Video - find exact moments visually, Audio - search spoken content, Images - understand context in visuals, Text - fully integrated with everything. The real value isn't just the tech it's what you can build with it. Think video editors that work via prompts, or research tools that connect interviews, images, and documents instantly.
