I personally think that’s helping the problem of the infestation of poor performing JavaScript sites making their way onto the desktop, often they’re so bad it’s more sensible to open those sites in a Firefox / Safari window.
I guess it comes down to what the user prioritizes, but I think it's good to have the option of running something on the desktop if I feel like it.
But that’s no different to running it in Firefox or whatever, it’s not a desktop app - it’s just JavaScript wrapper that is essentially doing the same thing but giving you less control and generally higher memory usage.
Sure. It's like driving to to the gym to run on a treadmill. But I'm not sure that other people doing something for themselves for their own reasons needs to be corrected because you or I would find it suboptimal for ourselves. If the person wants the thing, let them do the thing. What are we, the thing police?
Firefox does not have the WhatsApp logo, I cannot close and reopen a browser tab as easily as I can the nativefied app, etc. Of course it is different.
First time seeing this. What a cool tool
Super helpful. This will help me ship it sooner rather than thinking electron or something.
I'd love to know how it goes, I haven't actually tried it yet. Not sure how one would go about "releasing" the exported file.
