If you're somewhat skeptical about the fact that Nativefier is a command-line app, don't be. It's remarkably well-designed and easy-to-use, all things considered.

To install the app, you'll first need to install NPM, one of the most popular package managers.

Installation Steps:

1. Pop open a Terminal window (Ctrl+Alt+T)


2. Enter the command "sudo apt install npm"


3. Use NPM to install Nativefier by entering "sudo npm install nativefier -g"

For starters, copy the website's address from your browser's bar. Open a Terminal window and try generating a basic app.

Nativefier can do a lot more in terms of customization, such as adding apps to the top bar, making them fullscreen, or configuring them to start maximized.

Resources:

• Read the app's Help section by typing "nativefier --help"


• Refer to the app's official API documentation

There's really not much one can reproach to Nativefier. Still, the app works really well even in its command-line form, and it's easy enough to use even by beginners.
