MX Linux Forum

Hi,

Linux Mint team is working on a new app called Web App Manager. I think it is a useful and interesting tool that users can benefit from.
Is it possible to include that app in MX Linux too? Probabaly, MX team can think of contributing to the development of that app and make that app available in MX repos too.

Thanks

You can post a package request in the package requests forum.

It’s already been in the MX Test Repo. Install it via the MX Package Installer > MX Test Repo tab

TuxCrazy, this is the procedure for making package requests:

You can also search repology to see if a package is already in MX, before making a request.

Thanks a lot. I installed it from MX Test Repo.

You bet, don't mention it, I'll be maintaining this one from here on out unless something changes.

If anyone was tracking this thread or comes across it in a search....

webapp-manager 1.1.0 is now in the MX-19 Test Repo

Please use MX Package Installer to install it, DO NOT enable the MX Test Repo manually.

What an idiot! (Me, that is!)

I installed Mint on a spare partition just to have a look at this app, when I hadn't noticed that it was here all along. Brilliant work!

Hi!
I don't find webapp-manager (no more than ice-ssb) in the mx-test-repos (or stable)... Iam on Mx21-kde.
It's just me or not ?

Try the stable tab in MXPI. It's not on the Popular Applications tab, but is on the Stable tab.

Erf :-/ Thanks ! And sorry for my lack of attention...

I tried it but it looks like a detached tab in normal firefox. Am I missing something I hope?

That is more or less what it is! However, each Web App has a separate settings folder. To give an example, if you have a Facebook account which you use, but also an old, abandoned one which you still receive messages on from time to time, you can make a WebApp for the old one, and the usernames/passwords won't clash.

Sort of like a sandbox. That is cool.
