RS Desktop

a converse-desktop fork, except its a bit more up to date

new features include

this project is almost finished, here are the features i finished and which ones i didnt finish

• newer electron, specifically version 37 (FINISHED)
• windows 7+ support, windows vista+ support with win32's extended kernel (FINISHED)
• no more shitty commonjs code, the whole codebase has been ported to esm, which is a more up to date and flexible javascript standard (FINISHED)
• you can now zoom in using just your mouse's scroll wheel and the control key, just like on chrome and firefox (FINISHED)
• wanna customize your RS desktop client? sure, themes are now possible, you can even make custom ones if you want! (NOT FINISHED YET)

TODO: Post a screenshot, publish the source code, ~~~add some features~~~ finish themes

future plans?

• expand to macos and linux ~~~loonix~~~, don't restrict this just to the legacytards on windows 7
• make installers

things that are not getting added

• xp support (Supermium exists)
• we are not reverting back to commonjs just to be able to compile electron 27 builds for anyone that doesnt use macos past macos 10.15... maybe someone could backport an electron 28 client to macos 10.13/10.14?
• we are probably NOT gonna add things super impressive and extra features in the future, we just want a functional client for legacy windows.
