Draft:Ferdium

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ferdium is a dedicated application that consolidates multiple web apps into a single tabbed window, instead of opening multiple web apps directly in a web browser.

Ferdium is built on top of electron[1]

Fredium is basically a browser[2]

Ferdium does is take these various services and allows me to pull them all to a single application as a kind of container to access and utilize them.[3]

"Ferdium is a desktop app that helps you organize how you use your favourite apps by combining them into one application."[4]

"ferdium-server allows you to import your full Franz/Ferdi account, including all its settings."[5]

"Ferdium is an online service consolidator allowing users to access services such as Discord, Skype, Messenger, and more in a single place."[6]

"It seems like it’s a sandboxed app manager with the benefit of being able to create “workspaces” which would each have the set of apps you choose enabled in there. So for a “work” workspace you might have email, skype and a few other office apps in there. For the “after work” workspace you might have YouTube, Netflix, Discord and a few other casual/leisure type apps in there."[7]

it’s like a specialized browser[8]

It uses Chrome as web-interface. As for real sandboxing I‘m not sure.[9]

I just use it as a replacement for things like pidgin and trillian. it uses the web based versions of messengers. it’s like a specialized browser[10]

ferdium recipes are bundled in the application itself, so to fix/update a recipe, a new version of ferdium is released.[11]
