A wrapper for the discord web client as a Progressive Web Application, for use with Chromium browsers. This is an effort to create a successor to discord-chrome-app for when chromium drops support for apps. This project aims to provide a more persistent version of the web client, without the process monitor and other bloat included in the official desktop client.

• Opens in a separate window that can be pinned and used independently from your browser.
• Shows taskbar notifications on mentions/messages (highlight on new message and display badge with mention count -- can be customized in extension options)

• Shows number of unread mentions in a badge in your taskbar.
• Title bar cannot be themed to match the native discord client's. If Chromium allows borderless PWAs in the future this will be possible (by supporting "display":"fullscreen").
• Chromium's url tooltips will display in the bottom left when hovering over links/images.
• Your extensions can access/modify the Discord iframe.

1. Download the crx file. (right click > Save link as...)
2. Navigate to chrome://extensions/
3. Enable Developer mode (toggle/checkbox in top right corner, may vary depending on version)
4. Drag and drop the .crx file onto the chrome://extensions/ page to install
5. To launch the app visit chrome://apps/ (after first installing it from the link above)
6. After lauching you can pin the app to your taskbar (on windows) and it will essentially function as a stand-alone program

1. Download the .crx and extract its contents to a folder
2. Visit chrome://extensions/ and turn on developer mode (toggle in top right)
3. Click Load unpacked and select the directory you extracted the crx to.

• Remove and re-install the extension. This happens when multiple extensions try to modify headers for a page; the last installed extension has priority while others are blocked access.

• Unread count only includes messages after the PWA has started, meaning the icon will not flash/highlight upon startup.
• It is possible to open multiple windows at once, which causes undefined notification behaviour.
• The "extension is required" warning may appear even if discord successfully loads, you can safely close the modal if this happens.

• Taskbar behaviour is customizable in the extension's options chrome-extension://edfpalahildnikdjdnmmoekoncglnblh/options.html.
• Code modified from https://github.com/jamesjohnson280/hello-pwa, BetterDiscord code was also used/referenced.
