JustShell

Simple webapp wrapper written in Rust, based on GTK 4 and WebKitGTK 6.

For the legacy version using Qt WebEngine, see here.

Usage

Use JustShell to wrap a webapp.

justshell http://127.0.0.1:5050

Always use URL for local HTML file.

justshell file:///path/to/index.html

Use it as a PDF viewer? No problem! (Thanks, WebKit! :D)

justshell file:///path/to/myfile.pdf

Launch URL input dialog by simply typing in justshell.

justshell

Why switching to Rust?

Qt WebEngine is not good, period.
