Web applications like Gmail, Facebook, Campfire and Pandora are becoming more and more like desktop applications every day. Running each of these web apps in a separate tab in your browser can be a real pain. Fluid lets you create a Real Mac App (or "Fluid App") out of any website or web application, effectively turning your favorite web apps into OS X desktop apps.

@chriseyin Hey there, developer of Fluid here. First, thanks! Also: Fluid doesn't use Safari, but it *does* use the same rendering engine (WebKit from Apple). Fluid uses the version of WebKit installed on your Mac – the same version of WebKit used by Safari. So Fluid will always be using the latest stable version of WebKit, just like Safari. No need to update Fluid for this.

@itod @chriseyin Todd, thanks for creating fluid. I saw your comment. So, why does Google Inbox work in Safari but not Fluid?

@itod @chriseyin wish we could install some useful chrome extensions - would complete my fluid nirvana. . .

@itod I tried sending a fluid app to another Mac. Doesn't work. Any advice? These things would go massively viral if you could share.

Teachable

My favourite use case: Fluid + Trello Takes Trello out of your normal browser (amongst 14 tabs and 3 windows), and gives it it's own spot in your dock.

@ryangum downside of using fluid with trello is losing all the functionality provided the many extensions out there (ultimello & add to trell - my most used). otherwise, I have about a dozen "apps" i sued exclusively with fluid.

Product Hunt

@davidchase03 true, this is an oldie but surprisingly a lot of people don't know about Fluid. It's used often for creating a "gmail app" to separate personal and work emails more easily.

@rrhoover had no idea this existed so very glad @KEVINgotbounce posted this. This is why I come to Product Hunt, I have a problem and nearly 99% of the time there's a product here that solves it (even older ones). Just the other day I had SoundCloud up and running in one of my 10+ Chrome tabs and really wished there was an OS X app for it as I tend to have an itchy CMD+W finger. Easiest $4.99 I've spent this week.
