A tool that installs, manages, and runs Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) in Mozilla Firefox as standalone desktop apps. It combines a Firefox browser extension, a Rust native program with a CLI, and UserChrome modifications to create an app-like Firefox runtime without tabs or address bar.

Use cases

  • install websites as desktop apps in Firefox
  • run web apps without browser tabs and address bar
  • manage multiple profiles for the same web app
  • get Chrome-like PWA support on Firefox
  • create site-specific browsers from any website
  • launch web apps from the start menu or taskbar

When to choose

  • you use Firefox and want to install websites as standalone apps
  • you need separate profiles or multiple accounts per web app
  • you want more PWA customization than Chromium browsers offer

When to avoid

  • you primarily use a Chromium-based browser with built-in PWA support
  • you need official Mozilla-supported PWA integration
  • you want PWAs installed as Windows APPX/MSIX packages
