WAM Rust (WebApp Manager) for Cosmic desktop.

Hey,

Lately there was a post on reddit about request for WebApp Manager for Cosmic desktop.

Few months ago I was working on WAM Rust so "web app manager" written in Rust and Iced-rs. Yesterday I decided to rewrite it to libcosmic so it will looks nicer and integrate with Cosmic desktop better.

The result is awesome. I'm happy how it looks.

This is very first working version of this app, so it's working with mainly mainstream browser and maybe there will be some fuckups. However I will try to do my best to finish it so it will work better and just like Linux Mint's "WAM".

If you are interested in this app, you can follow my progress on github: https://github.com/elevenhsoft/cosmic-wam

Have a nice day and wait patiently for Cosmic desktop :)

p.s.

Sorry for copy paste from reddit. It just faster to do than uploading again and again :)

Hey that's awesome! I love that app! I actually ended up pulling it from the Mint repo and installed it on my pop laptop a couple of years ago... I have not bothered to update it but it still works just fine. I will look forward to using yours when the time comes.
- Thank you! There are still much to do with browsers support but most mainstream works for now like firefox or chromium. Also they flatpak equivalent.
