如今, Web(Web)应用程序遍布互联网。无论是您的电子邮件、待办事项列表还是社交网络,每个人都将他们的服务作为可从 Web 浏览器访问的 Web 应用程序提供。但是,如果您是像我这样喜欢在某些基本 Web 应用程序中使用本机应用程序的人,那么本指南适合您。我们介绍了一项名为Web2Desk的免费服务,它允许您将任何应用程序转换为本地Windows/Linux/Mac应用程序并下载它。
Web2Desk 评论
Web2Desk在幕后使用Nativefier 。如果您不了解Nativefier,可以继续阅读此处。Nativefier是一个用JavaScript编写的工具,可让您将任何网站或 Web 应用程序包装在Electron容器中。
什么是电子?
Electron是基于Node.js和Chromium的(Chromium)JavaScript框架。它允许您在一个完全独立的Chrome窗口中运行任何网页,几乎就像一个原生应用程序。Electron支持几乎所有平台,包括Windows、Linux和MacOS。
因此,Web2Desk基本上所做的是将网站作为输入,然后使用Nativefier将其包装在Electron容器中,从而为您提供可在所有平台上使用的本机应用程序。
您也可以在您的计算机上使用Nativefier,但为此,您必须安装Node.js。而且你必须对使用命令行工具有一点了解。但是您可以完全跳过这一步,让Web2Desk为您处理。
如何为任何网站或网络应用程序制作原生Windows应用程序
要开始创建应用程序,请前往Web2Desk。输入(Enter)您要为其创建本机应用程序的网站/网络应用程序的URL 。现在输入应用程序名称。它应该自动检测它的图标;如果图标不合适,可以上传一个。现在输入您希望接收下载链接的电子邮件,您就完成了。
点击Create Now按钮,该服务将开始在其服务器上构建您的应用程序。一旦应用程序已编译并准备好下载,您将收到电子邮件通知。对于Windows(Windows)应用程序,估计的等待时间通常约为 2-3 分钟。
您可以在同一页面上等待或打开电子邮件中的链接以下载该应用程序。下载文件大小约为 45 MB(MBs),并且该应用程序采用便携式形式。您可以打开提取的内容并从可执行文件启动应用程序。
要获得更多可访问性,您可以将应用程序固定到任务栏或在开始菜单(Start Menu)上创建快捷方式。不幸的是,没有创建安装程序变体的选项,但您可以使用现有工具为下载的应用程序创建安装程序。
请记住,使用(Remember)Web2Desk或Nativefier创建的应用程序在Chromium窗口中运行,该窗口与您现有的浏览器或使用Nativefier创建的其他应用程序是分开的。如果您对一个网站有多个帐户并希望同时运行它们,则可以使用这些工具来发挥您的优势。
Web2Desk还为一些最流行的 Web 应用程序提供了一些预编译的应用程序。这些应用程序包括Trello、Twitter、Asana、WhatsApp、Telegram、Spotify等。
Web2Desk是一项很棒的免费服务。它使您可以轻松地将您喜欢的 Web 应用程序转换为本机应用程序。我非常喜欢这项服务,以至于我几乎将我所有的 Web 应用程序(例如Gmail、GitHub甚至TheWindowsClub )都转换为原生应用程序。它们在计算机上看起来很出色,并且在性能方面表现出色。单击(Click) 此处(here)(here)转到 Web2Desk。
How to make a native Windows app for any website or web-app
Web applications are all around the internet these days. Whether it your email, a to-do list or a social network, everybody offers their service as web-applicatіon that is accessible from a web browser. But if you are a person like me whо preferѕ nativе applіcatiоns fоr some еssеntial web apps, then this guide is for you. We’ve covered a free service callеd Web2Desk which lets you convert any application to a native Windows/Linux/Mac application and download it.
Web2Desk Review
Web2Desk uses Nativefier behind the scenes. If you don’t know about Nativefier, you can go ahead and read about it here. Nativefier is a tool written in JavaScript that lets you wrap any website or web-app inside an Electron container.
What is Electron?
Electron is JavaScript framework based on Node.js and Chromium. It lets you run any webpage in an entirely separate Chrome window that is almost like a native application. Electron supports almost all the platforms including Windows, Linux, and MacOS.
So what Web2Desk basically does is, takes a website as an input and then uses Nativefier to wrap it inside an Electron container which gives you a native application that a be used on all the platforms.
You can also use Nativefier on your computer, but for that, you must have Node.js installed. And also you must have a little knowledge about using command line tools. But you can entirely skip this and let Web2Desk handle that for you.
How to make a native Windows app for any website or web-app
To start creating an application, head over to Web2Desk. Enter the URL of the website/web-app you want to create a native application for. Now enter the applications name. It should automatically detect an icon for it; if the icon is not suitable, you can upload one. Now enter the email where you would wish to receive the download link and you are done.
Hit the Create Now button and the service would start building your application on its servers. Once the application has been compiled and ready to be downloaded, you will be notified by email. The estimated wait time usually is around 2-3 minutes for a Windows application.
You can either wait on the same page or open the link from your email to download the application. The download file size was around 45 MBs, and the application comes in a portable form factor. You can open the extracted contents and start your application from the executable file.
For more accessibility, you can pin the application to the taskbar or create shortcuts on Start Menu. Unfortunately, there is no option to create an installer variant, but you can use existing tools to create an installer for the downloaded application.
Remember that applications created with Web2Desk or Nativefier are running inside a Chromium window which is separate from your existing browser or other applications created with Nativefier. You can use these tools to your advantage if you have multiple accounts for one website and want to run them simultaneously.
Web2Desk also offers you some pre-compiled applications for some of the most popular web applications. These applications include Trello, Twitter, Asana, WhatsApp, Telegram, Spotify, etc.
Web2Desk is a great free service. It lets you easily convert your favorite web applications to native applications. I love this service so much that I have converted almost all my web applications such as Gmail, GitHub and even TheWindowsClub to a native application. They look outstanding on a computer and are great performance wise. Click here to go to Web2Desk.
