[DEPRECATED] :bird: Pristine Twitter app

Primary LanguageJavaScriptMIT LicenseMIT

Deprecated

Me and others put a lot of work into this project to make the Mobile Twitter site great as a desktop app. I've chosen to deprecate it now, as it's impossible to keep up with the Mobile Twitter ever changing React class names. I don't have time to update a bunch of CSS-selectors every other week. Thanks for all the fish.

Happy to let anyone else take over if interested.


Anatine

Pristine Twitter app

This app is based the awesome Mobile Twitter site, but modifies a lot of things and makes it more usable on the desktop.
