Since I’m using Linux most of the time, I often find myself wanting to install an app instead of having yet another pinned tab in the browser. Using the browser for long-running apps like Slack , Notion , and Click-Up is not a great experience, especially if you want to quickly jump from whatever you’re doing to one of the apps.
To solve this for myself, I tried multiple solutions over the years - the first one being Mozilla Prism in 2007, and I have recently settled on using nativefier .
Nativefier wraps a given website as a desktop application for the platform you’re using (Linux, macOS, and Windows are supported)
It’s as simple as this running:
nativefier --name "Notion" "https://www.notion.so/"
And you’re done.
