The project is no longer seeking new developers, contributors are still welcomed to help out.
Well, that’s sad news. Hope someone takes over and keep improving it, maybe penpot devs themselves? I don’t know… For now, maybe it’s time to start looking back to ideas like this one… Can be a thing for some people, sure it is for me.
There does appear to be an option in Chromium where you can install any page as an app:
I was using Ungoogled Chromium in this case.
Wow, that’s nice! Haven’t been using any browser other than Edge and Firefox for a while, had no Idea they’ve implemented that in there too.
A quick mention for this thread, I forked the Penpot Desktop and it got its first release. More details are available in the main Penpot Desktop thread.
After many attempts at Tauri…nvm that didn’t work out. I’ll be sticking with Electron still.
I may get back into desktop development early Jan or Feb and put Penpot Desktop under a new name to prevent confusion in the future.
Update: It’s been continued. Check the official post.
