This is why I love site-specific browsers. On the mac I make SSBs using Fluid for most of the sites I use throughout the day (email, calendar, google docs, ci server, pivotal tracker, etc.) and then use traditional OS app switching mechanics to switch between them.
As a result, no browser controls: no back, home, or url bar. The window is dedicated to a single site.
And now on Lion, I can make anything fullscreen if I want to get rid of the OS chrome also and focus only on the content of the app/site I'm using.
- tikhonj 15y agoDoes Fluid basically do the same thing as google-chrome -app=<whatever>? (I think it does, but I could be missing something.) This was a big feature touted by Chrome when it came out. You can access it from the UI via wrench menu > tools > create application shortcut (I think it used to be more discoverable, but it is a little hidden now :(). Additionally, you have been able to make browsers full-screen for years, in all OSes (that I've used, anyhow) using F11.
