web2app

A local web GUI for Pake: turn any website into a desktop app.

Builds run one at a time from a queue, each build is kept in a history you can reopen, builds work offline after the first install, and you can pair a phone to send it links. It runs on your machine at 127.0.0.1 only.

Run it locally, step by step

  1. Install Node.js 22 or newer and Rust, which Pake needs to build apps.

  2. Get the code:

    git clone https://github.com/Gitguy268/web2app.git
    cd web2app
    
  3. Install the dependencies:

    npm install
    
  4. Start it:

    npm start
    

    On a Mac you can double-click start.command instead of these two steps.

  5. Open http://localhost:7417/ in your browser. Press Ctrl+C in the terminal to stop.
