Download this plugin to accelerate your webapp!

I’m using a ton of web apps nowadays. It’s mostly cool, but I have an idea.

You know that plugin you use to deploy your webapp? Or, like Wordpress, the plugin you offer to speed up the app’s performance? I think you could add a couple of key features.

First, maybe the plugin could make your app launch in its own window, with a custom icon for the taskbar. That way, I could find your app faster! Plus, maybe you could capture all input, so that I don’t worry about whether Ctrl-B is going to bold my text or make a bookmark. Also, what if you optimized the code a bit more– maybe skip past some of that browser gunk in the way, so your web app doesn’t slow down my (fairly beefy) computer? And shoot, as long as you’re doing all that, maybe you could put all the necessary code on my computer, so that I can run the “web app” while I’m offline.

I can’t believe I just put all those great ideas into one post– I could’ve kept them to myself and made a fortune.
