Hunter's comment

i've been using this little open source piece of code for a while to make little standalone windows for things - i use it for chat windows that i don't want to adjust the size for (think like things like OBS where it uses the window name) -- it's perfect.

Nativefier is a command line tool that allows you to easily create a desktop application for any web site with succinct and minimal configuration. Apps are wrapped by Electron in an OS executable (.app, .exe, etc.) for use on Windows, macOS and Linux.

it's highly customizable as well, might be useful for non-techy people to put applications front and centre on the desktop for people who are not that confident with finding and running applications (my mum said her machine was broken when she could not find the 'icon' at the right place on screen!)

Hello friend, your hunting is very good @teamhumble, so here I will leave you my personal criticisms of pros and cons.

Pros:

  • This is a command line tool that allows you to easily create a desktop application for any website, it really makes everything easier, and allows you to do what you want.
  • Can be used in Windows, macOS and Linux.
  • In the same way it is also highly customizable and to do it to our own taste, this could be useful for people outside the technology
  • Applications can be placed front and center on the desktop for people who are not so sure of finding and executing them.

Cons:

  • The truth none for this hunting friend.

Keep up the hunt!

Good hunter contribution, the idea of creating windows applications from a web is great. It is very useful when you need the browser does not consume many resources.

I guess it improves performance, or not ?.
