A Mac OS X screensaver which simply embeds WebKit to display a webpage or JavaScript application. Perfect for Canvas animations.
You can specify a web url as screen saver.
This version includes a simple Preferences sheet.
WebGL is supported (thanks to cggaurav).
-
Open WebSaver.xcodeproj in Xcode.
-
Select Build in the Product menu. WebSaver.saver will be created at:
/Users/.../Library/Developer/Xcode/DerivedData/WebSaver-.../Build/Products/Debug/WebSaver.saver -
Double-click WebSaver.saver to automatically install into System Preferences.
Occasionally, a screen saver won't work when installed automatically (this issue has existed in OS X for years).
To perform a manual installation, copy WebSaver.saver to:
/Users/.../Library/Screen Savers/
- Change the "Product Name" in the "Web" target if you are distributing a screensaver to prevent conflicts with others.
