The path to an app's data is ~/Library/Application Support/Epichrome/Apps/. You can do this the same way as backing up the apps.

It's also a good idea to periodically backup your apps' data.

Then if anything goes wrong during an update, you can delete the app and double-click the zip archive to recreate it intact. You can right-click on an app in the Finder and select Compress.

It's a good idea to back up your Epichrome apps.

It might not actually do anything terrible, but it also won't do anything good.

ĝon't click the "Update Now" button on the About Chrome page in your Epichrome apps.In rare cases, you may also need to delete your user-specific directory at ~/Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate before running the reinstalled Chrome. The surest way to disable it is by first deleting that directory (you'll need administrator privileges), then deleting Chrome and reinstalling the latest release from Google. If your system contains the directory /Library/Google/GoogleSoftwareUpdate, then automatic updates are on. This option will cause fatal errors in your apps.

Epichrome extension update#

ĝo not use the "Automatically update Chrome for all users" option on Chrome's About page if you have any apps with the external Chrome engine (this includes all apps updated from earlier versions of Epichrome).

The welcome page that appears when apps are created or updated now gives useful contextual information and prompts for important actions like (re)installing extensions.

Ě new built-in engine has been added, using the Chrome-compatible open source Brave Browser to allow more app-like behavior including better link-routing and custom icons on desktop notifications.

Ğpichrome has been completely rewritten for full compatibility with macOS 10.15 Catalina, including accessing the system microphone and camera from within apps and interacting with AppleScript.The built-in engine has been updated to Brave 1.12.112.Ĭheck out the change log for the full list.Future beta versions will be able to update release apps by opening them in Epichrome.app. Release apps will no longer prompt to update to beta versions._Please glance through the notes on the latest version and the “Important Notes” section below._ Download the binary release here.

Each app automatically installs _Epichrome Helper_, which uses rules to decide which links the app should handle itself, and which should be sent to the default web browser.

_Epichrome.app_ creates Chrome-based site-specific browsers (SSBs) for Mac OSX (Chrome must be installed in order to run them, but they are full Mac apps, each with its own separate Chrome profile). It includes an extension to route links to your default browser.ĮPICHROME is made up of two parts: an AppleScript-based Mac application (_Epichrome.app_) and a companion Chrome extension (_Epichrome Helper_). I think this would be a big home run for Orion and frankly I would pay for this functionality since Epichrome was the only one that did things right, but the developer had to abandon it due to his frustration with Google and Brave and not being able to control their choices whatsoever.EPICHROME is an application and Chrome extension for creating web-based applications that work like standalone Mac apps.Įpichrome lets you create web-based Mac applications compatible with the full range of extensions available in the Chrome Web Store. I can go through this and help with the process in more detail if you'd like. Orion would link the Orion engine to the new app and would be automatically updated when Orion itself is updated.

The new app (might, but I don't care about this feature) would have a choice of being a single window or multi-tabbed window version of Orion (I always choose multi-tabbed since I use this for many websites).

A custom icon would be selectable by the user if the default icon is not chosen.

Orion would have an app generator or method to save a new "Orion" app that would be saved into a folder (eg, "/Applications/Orion/Apps/") with a custom name.

I'll walk through the kind of scenario with Epichrome and the other competitors and perhaps you can tell me if we're on the same page: The idea is more along the lines of Orion being able to generate differently named apps of itself for a kind of containerized approach for web browsing so that it keeps browsing context as is deemed appropriate by the user.

this is not so much a singularized web app, although traditionally people have called it SSB or web-app-like support.

can you provide the link? I'm simply not finding a similar / related thread with searches.

Vlad thanks for getting back to me, two things:
