Third party clients like Thorium typically make use of our API: https://docs.joinpeertube.org/api-rest-reference.html. We will not build an extra interface. The beauty of the JavaScript-based web UI is that it reuses the same API as all other apps, so things don't need to implemented multiple times in JS (server-side, client-side).

We'll add them to a page similar to https://joinmastodon.org/apps and advertise it from the noscript message.
