Create Web Version of FreeTube #633

Closed EnterTheVoid-x86 closed 2 years ago

EnterTheVoid-x86 commented 4 years ago

I would like you to make an online version of FreeTube so that chromebook users, like I, can use the app without installing crouton or crostini.

PrestonN commented 4 years ago

We started work on a web version, however progress has been shelved for now because a web version will have to rely solely on Invidious for backend data. When Invidious seems to be back to regular development (which looks like it's slowly starting to look that way) then we'll go back to making progress on this.

For now though, this won't be worked on.

@PrestonN any updates?

PrestonN commented 3 years ago

There are currently no updates as of now. There will need to be a lot of changes on the backend that need to be made so that FreeTube can run without any Node / Electron specific APIs. A majority of the app doesn't need them however there's some logic that needs to be re-organized / rewritten to check when the APIs are available or not. This will be a very large update and I'll have to dedicate an update to getting it done. As of now, it isn't a priority so that we can instead focus on other features.

I'd like to run freetube on the browser also

sdfg2 commented 3 years ago

With sponsorblock built in, and a far superior interface with freetube, I wish invidious just merged this project in as their front end.

As already Preston mentioned

As of now, it isn't a priority so that we can instead focus on other features.

So im closing this issue. For anyone that is interested check out this fork of FT that can run in the browser https://github.com/MarmadileManteater/FreeTubeCordova
