This is a fork of the original project that is way ahead now.

    I don’t see a server, so shouldn’t this be “a collection of offline tools”? Throw in a service worker to cache everything (maybe it has one?) and there’s no reason to ever hit the server after first load.

      So basically a browser extension? Actually it would be preferable in the Firefox sidebar vs a standalone site…

        There are lots of options:

        • extension, as you mentioned
        • Tauri app - like election, but uses system web view instead of baking in a browser
        • PWA - service workers to make it work offline in the browser

        Each is pretty easy, and the PWA means you can basically get the Tauri app feel for free.

      It’s the kind of thing I host so that no matter what device I’m sitting in front of, I can easily pull it up. Hence a server is needed. I’m not talking about just my own laptop or phone, I mean any shared or borrowed device.

      I find it so useful I pull it up almost every workday.
