WebRunner  
This simple XULRunner application implements a minimal web browser

Introduction

This is WebRunner, a simple XULRunner application which implements a minimal web browser for use with your favorite web application. The code is based on this code by Mark Finkle and Benjamin Smedberg.

Purpose

The main use for WebRunner is to experiment with XULRunner application development. There is very little functionality provided beyond an example application structure for an over-simplified web browser application.

You might find WebRunner to be useful for wrapping an online application into it's own separate browser window with it's own unique process. This can make a web application feel more like a regular desktop application.

Changes

The following changes have been made to the original WebRunner code:

  • Wrapped the app with a Mac OS X Application Bundle
  • Implemented a simple Preferences dialog
  • Created a spiffy icon:
