Configuration

Changing the default browser

Open Web Apps Manager ➤ Modify WebApps ➤ Migrate WebApps and select your browser from the list. This permanently updates the default browser for all future webapps.

Supported browsers:

• Helium Browser
• Google Chrome
• Ungoogled Chromium
• Brave
• Vivaldi
• Microsoft Edge

Note

If you use a different browser than the ones listed above then you need to either manually add it or create an issue about it and I will add it for sure.

To Do List

These are some features, optimizations or improvements I plan to add in the near future. As this is a hobby project, I will add these whenever I have the time to do so but any of you is welcome to contribute by making a PR for any of these. Read below for instructions on contributing !

• Improve the UX
• Firefox and gecko based browser's support via PWA
• Allow users to choose a custom icon of webapps
• Allow users to create backups of all the installed webapps and allow them to add them back via the backup incase of a new install
• More confirmation messages to avoid mishaps

If you want some other quality of life features to be added create an issue about it and I will add it or just make a PR about it yourself. I am down for anything as long as it's meaningful !

Contributing

Contributions are welcome! Here's how you can help:

• Fork the repo and submit a pull request for bug fixes or new features
• Create an issue if you find a bug or want to request a feature
• Request a browser if your Chromium-based browser isn't in the list — open an issue and I'll add it

Note

Please keep pull requests focused and minimal — one fix or feature per PR.
