As desktop app?

mccalluc opened this issue · 0 comments

We'd like people to use Refinery, or they should be able to use the command-line... but some folks want a desktop app. This work would go in a new repo:

  • First, investigate options for wrapping up code, dependencies, and python binary.
  • and figure out deployment: github releases?
  • then, add an interstitial UI for selecting files.
  • In the first pass, the application still just launches into a web browser.
