desktop app ?

[jkanche]

I was wondering if we can build this into a desktop app using electron ?

Yes, It's doable but I think it's not a priority for now. I do use the desktop version with the help of nativefier.

Maybe we just have to apply PWA (Progressive Web App) to build an offline-first web app, then we can install it to desktop/mobile using Chrome (https://www.howtogeek.com/fyi/how-to-install-progressive-web-apps-pwas-in-chrome/)

More detail in https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/app-install-banners/#test

Sure. Offline support is already planned in the next 2 version.

Using nativefier worked for me:

$ npm install nativefier -g
$ nativefier "https://pomoday.app" --name "Pomoday"

The app-icon depends on your OS. See nativefier api

Apparently Nativefier has the ability to set the icon yourself, using --icon=file-name.png or something.

Here's what I'm using on my machine right now :D

If anyone interested, here's the icons you can use:
