Onsnap

Snapchat Web (Snapchat Desktop Application), but in its own window. Stays focused, no scrollbars, auto-refreshes so it doesn't eat your RAM.

Features

• Frameless window loading web.snapchat.com
• Always keeps focus
• Injects CSS to hide ugly scrollbars
• Fetches a fresh user-agent so Snapchat doesn't complain about your browser
• Auto-reloads every 1.5h to prevent slowdown from the memory-hoggy Snapchat web app

Stack

• Desktop shell: Rust + Tauri v2 (src-tauri/)
