CLUSTER DESKTOP-WEBSITES-STANDALONE · 25 ENTRIES · EARLIEST ENTRY 2019-01-05

Website to desktop app wrappers

This cluster consists of tools that wrap websites or web apps into standalone desktop applications, often with sandboxing, theming, or profile isolation. Dated entries span from January 2019 to July 2026, with a concentration of three entries in early 2025 (January, March, May) and isolated entries in other years. The traction leader is awesome-deepseek-harness-desktop with 11 stars, while other dated members have zero stars.

Each bar is the month a member carries, which is a creation date where the source published one and a crawl date otherwise. Nothing in the index was found before 11 August 2026, and coverage broadened sharply on 14–15 August, so a bar from then on reports how much we found that month, not how much was built; an earlier bar reports how far back a member's own source dated it — not how long we have been watching.
