HTML2Linux Pro
A downloadable tool
Linux users deserve better than “just open it in the browser.”
You built a solid web app. Windows users get a clean .exe. Mac users get a proper .app. Linux users usually get a shrug and a link.
Electron works on Linux, but you end up fighting .deb, .rpm and AppImage packaging, then shipping a 150 to 200 MB download for a simple tool. Users notice. Packaging conventions get ignored. The app never feels native.
HTML2Linux Pro solves this with native GTK3 + WebKit2GTK.
Point it at your HTML folder or a live URL, set the options, and build. You get a proper Linux desktop application that integrates with the system menu, icons and themes. No Electron. No Node.js. No massive runtime.
