If you are one of those who generally hate apps in a browser and rather have a seperate app for it, i wrapped spectrum into a windows app:






you can download it here:

https://img.test.wtf/spectrum/Spectrum-by-TEST-0.1.0.7z

Open Spectrum.exe, voila!

USE AT YOUR OWN RISK - DON'T BLAME ME IF YOU DON'T UNDERSTAND WHAT IS HAPPENING (and are amazed by vapsyvox skills)

What is it actually and how did you do it?

There is no sorcery involved, it is Electron, a wrapper for webpages, similiar to what Discord does.

It is the app "nativefier" that uses Electron to automatically wrap any webpage. You can do it yourself if you don't trust the premade app.


EDIT:

Electron version: 1.6.0. beta
added TEST Logo

Neat. I'll download it later as I am still patching and my internet connection sucks more than a Hoover vacuum cleaner.

I was actually thinking about creating something similar closer to release. My idea was to make a TEST Commander app. Essentially giving you desktop access to Spectrum, these forums, and discord. Just a simple tray icon that you right click to open which ever one you want.

You could also add other apps/functions as needed. I did this for my guild in a MMO I played a long long time ago and it was pretty useful, Though that app also had functions for in-game play.

Outside of Spectrum, The forums, and Discord ... anything else you can think of that would be useful?
