About this plugin
DSHs Web UI defaults to a browser tab, sandwiched between shopping carts and inboxes. As an all-day work panel, it always feels like it is missing a dedicated window.
dsh-desktop-app opens the Web UI in your existing Chromium-family browser (Edge, Chrome, Brave, etc.) via --app mode: no address bar, no tabs, its own taskbar entry and icon. A tiny tray-host process (PowerShell + .NET, no extra runtime) keeps the service alive after the window is closed; right-click the tray icon to restore, restart, or quit. The restart action delivers the current reply first, then delays the server stop and relaunches a fresh window without interrupting the page currently rendering.
Built for Windows users who treat DSH as their primary panel and want it to feel like quiet native software. No Electron, no extra downloads, no standalone runtime — it reuses the browser already on your system.
Use Cases
- Use DSH as an all-day primary panel in a dedicated window instead of a browser tab
- Close the window while the service keeps running, restore or restart from the system tray
- Restart the DSH server smoothly, delivering the current reply before the server stops
Best For
- Developers who use DSH daily on Windows
- Users who want a desktop experience close to native software
- Users who prefer a lightweight solution without Electron or extra runtimes
