I found this very promising app that looks like it can be an alternative to Ferdium, Rambox, Franz, Hamsket.

WebSpace is an app that brings websites and web apps together in one organized, streamlined interface. Any web app you can think off can be used in WebSpace in its own web instance instead of your main web browser. Basically it is a web browser but for web apps you use often and may want running in the background.

For use degoogled users who use website, web apps, PWAs over native apps, this makes using these services much easer.

WebSpace also adds many privacy features such as ad blocking and filtering, cookie isolation, and more.

Also it is written in Flutter! Meaning this could become available on desktop in the future! One app, one codebase for all major OSes!

Check it out and contribute!

Neat project, but it appears to be using (L)GPL code in a bunch of places while being licensed under MIT. That's a big no-no.

    Too bad it's built on Chrome webview, so no adblocking.

    Can you help me understand the purpose of this? Usually I want PWAs running in my preferred browser.

    I prefer to have PWAs not in my preferred browser and others would as well.

    For some web apps, I want it to look and behave like an "app", without the clutter of the extra menus that a browser has.

    For others, I want it to have the protections and capabilities (ex. adblocking and extensions) that the browser has

    That's exactly what a normal PWA does. It's not what this app does, it adds menus on top of your PWA.

    That's also what a normal PWA does.
