Web App Manager for the COSMIC™ desktop written with love and libcosmic. Allow you to simply create web applications from given url working inside separate window of your browser of choice.
Hey! This app is fully distributed for free with free license. I'm doing it with passion in my free time. Trying to keep it stable and bug free as long as I can. However, would be nice if you could bring me some coffee so I can work longer on it :)
If you installed this app via flatpak, make sure your browser of choice have access to Quick Web Apps profiles directory. The default location for custom profiles is ~/.var/app/dev.heppen.webapps/data/quick-webapps/profiles, so your browser of choice must have read-write permission to this directory. Some browser have full access to your home location, but otherwise, you need to set it manually.
For Mozilla Firefox, you can do this by running this command:
flatpak override --filesystem=~/.var/app/dev.heppen.webapps/data/quick-webapps/profiles org.mozilla.firefox
or if you have user-wide installation, add --user flag to command, like so:
flatpak override --user --filesystem=~/.var/app/dev.heppen.webapps/data/quick-webapps/profiles org.mozilla.firefox

git clone https://github.com/cosmic-utils/web-apps.git
