WebCatalog Lite License: MPL 2.0 Travis Build Status

WebCatalog Lite helps you turn any website into desktop app with just one click. It is the incompatible successor of WebCatalog 10 & Appifier.

Originally, WebCatalog relied on Electron to appify website into desktop app, which allowed its developers to customize and extend the functionalities freely. But Electron also had many quirks: each appified app included a heavy Electron framework, and it was cumbersome to bundle a proper Electron build system on 3 different platforms; etc.

WebCatalog Lite app is still built on top of Electron, but it uses the installed browsers on your machine to power its created apps (1, 2). So appified apps are always up-to-date with your browsers, and WebCatalog no longer has to do all the dirty works. The result is a new lightweight, maintainable, secure and up-to-date product.
