Welcome to snapchat-electron's wiki page. Here you can find tutorials on how to use the application in its entirety.
It is a desktop port of Snapchat's website. Users can install the portable version, or build from the repository. As of writing this its features are:
- A notification system providing you with push notifications on your desktop.
- A settings page allowing users to change various settings about their desktop.
- A theme ability, allowing users to change the coloration of their snapchat.
In the future I plan to add:
- An emoji system, allowing users to configure predefined emoji spaces and manipulate their messages with a hotkey.
- Custom icons to the application.
- Maybe some sort of stat system, allowing users to view how many messages they've sent on the desktop version, hours used, etcetera.
- Probably going to revamp the notification system to be more lightweight and less intrusive.
- In v 2.0.0 I visited the idea of a dynamic theme editing system. It seemed to be impossible to implement it the way I wanted due to content security policies, but I still want to try and implement it. I may revisit this in the future, so it's tentative. I will at least implement a GUI allowing users to edit the values instead of having to open a .json file.
This is true, but they don't provide the level of customization I want to add. My goal with this application is to give snapchat users the ability to customize their desktop experience and make it their own. In the same way that platforms like "Better Discord" function.
Yes. It is. I've made this repo public and open source in complete transparency. Anyone is able to view the code on both the released and unpackaged versions. The reason WS is telling you it's not safe is I don't have an EV (Extended Validation) cert. Due to the nature of EV certs, you have to have a legal business registered to obtain one. As of writing this, this project is in its infancy. If I see it grow I will register an entity and obtain a cert to sign the packaged application.
