Safari Support?

Open athei opened this issue 7 years ago • 5 comments

Will there be Safari Support? I know there use a completely different extension model. But still it could be worthwhile to get everyone on board.

Once the desktop companion is live it'll be very easy to just port over the remaining extension code to a Safari extension. It'll have to wait until then though.

Does this mean the extension will just be a stub that forwards things to the desktop app? I guess the UI code is what is hard to do cross browser.

Yup, that's exactly what it means. The desktop app will be able to connect to the browser extension and provide the same functionality without consuming as many resources within the browser. It'll also be able to connect to other things.. like games.

Sounds really nice. Finally Dapp Support in Safari. Is there already a repository for the desktop app or is it this repository?

Nope no repository yet. But it's underway.
