WebSaver: A WebKit-based Mac OS X screensaver

A Mac OS X screensaver which simply embeds WebKit to display a webpage or JavaScript application. Perfect for Canvas animations.

By default WebSaver comes with Tom Theisen's excellent "spread" Canvas experiment: http://tomtheisen.com/spread/

Instructions

Install the pre-built version of WebSaver by double-clicking "WebSaver/build/Release/Web.saver".

Replace "Web.saver/Contents/Resources/index.html" with your own web page or application.

To build from source, do the following:

  1. Open WebSaver.xcodeproj in Xcode.

  2. Modify or replace index.html.

  3. Build.

  4. Double-click the built Web.saver to install.

Notes

  • Change the "Product Name" in the "Web" target if you are distributing a screensaver to prevent conflicts with others.

TODO

  • Integrate preferences.
