I love when technology builds bridges. Why is it called "spring" tho? Same vibes as programming languages architects choosing the most unsearchable names ever
Might just get rid of Amethyst and use this as my Nostr superapp... need Stacker News as an app tile, at least until it becomes a full-fledged Nostr browser with URL support.
You can have it there - someone should just publish Stacker.news on nostr, i.e. with nostrapp.link. Or just paste https://stacker.news into the search bar of Spring and then pin the opened tab. Login with Nostr does work, although some weird error screen popped up for me.
Speed is definitely a big advantage of native apps. However, I wonder how much gain we could get if we implemented various nostr-specific APIs and optimizations at the browser level - like a native nostr-tools/ndk implementation that speeds up event processing, or a browser-wide event cache, etc.
Looks dope!
Well done @brugeman
Thanks!
cool !
for the non smartphone crowd such as myself can your team do an x64 port for linux?
Woooo brugeman is killing it. This is such a cool and novel concept.
Thanks! Yeah I think this blend of several concepts gives us a new useful UX. So much work ahead though

Thanks for the feedback! Do you mean Spring is too vague and not related to tech in your mind?
The word "spring" is a very widespread technology for servers

Yeah it's pretty nice. The native apps have advantages too, such as speed.

Can this app be use to connect to tor by proxy?
Need to look into that, I think we can add this as an option.
looking good!

This wht i need
It works great so far, especially for a first release.
If a native app is installed, can you detect it & move it to the top rather than the bottom?
Thanks!
Can you please give me more input on your question? Say you have Amethyst installed, you want it to be offered at the top of app suggestions?
looking awesome!
Love to try this new browser 🫂
This is cool, nostr devs always surprise us.
super exciting — this new tech needs easier onboarding and UX and this is very much in that direction
That's why I come to SN. all the good info nice and early. Thanks for the post friend
Cool!
Another one...?! 🤔 🙈 Few hundreds or thousands already! 😁
Always wanted to build one, dream coming true :)
Looks nicer than https://www.nostrnet.work/
NostrNet.work is a great tool and an alternative to Spring on desktop, but some features like custom context menus just can't be implemented there.
