Velora — Web apps, shipped as
desktop software.
Paste a URL. Get a Windows, macOS, Linux, or Android installer under 5 MB. No bundled browser. No build toolchain on your machine.
Three steps. No local toolchain.
Everything compiles in the cloud. You bring the URL, Velora handles the rest.
Paste your URL
Point Velora at any web address: a production SaaS app, a staging server, or a static site. We validate headers and generate a runtime manifest.
Set window preferences
Pick dimensions, titlebar style, tray behavior, offline screen, and inject CSS overrides. The configurator outputs a velora.config.json you can version-control.
Download installers
Compile .exe, .dmg, .AppImage, and .apk binaries from the cloud. Average size: under 5 MB.
120 MB of Chrome, or 5 MB of nothing extra.
Traditional wrappers bundle a full copy of Chromium with every app. Velora uses the web engine already on the user's machine.
Target format: .exe (NSIS Installer) / .msi. Users install in under 3 seconds.
Velora shell uses 34 MB for the native container. Total memory depends on the website loaded — just like a browser tab.
Host engine: Microsoft Edge WebView2. Zero V8 engine bootstrapping delay.
Bandwidth & Memory Savings Calculator
Estimate infrastructure and end-user hardware resources saved compared to bundling Google Chrome.
| Capability / Architecture | Velora Engine | Bundled Chromium (Electron) | Standard PWA |
|---|---|---|---|
| Standalone Installer (.exe, .dmg, .AppImage, .apk) | Yes (Native binary) | Yes (Heavy bundle) | Browser shortcut only |
| Runtime Footprint | < 5 MB download / ~30 MB shell | 140+ MB download / 250+ MB RAM | Uses active browser tab RAM |
| System Tray & Native Menu Bar | Full native OS tray | Full native OS tray | No system tray |
| Custom CSS / JS Injection at Startup | Native pre-injection | Via preload script | Server code only |
| Security Sandboxing & Domain Allowlist | System browser delegation | Requires custom Node IPC guards | Standard web origin sandbox |
| Code Signing & Distribution Compliance | Authenticode (.pfx) & Unsigned Dev | Supported | Web HTTPS certificate only |

What Velora adds to your web app
Domain isolation, tray menus, offline recovery, and custom injection, configured from your project settings.
Domain allowlists with system delegation
Links outside your approved domains open in the user's default browser instead of inside the native window. This keeps the webview isolated and blocks phishing redirects.
- Prevents embedded phishing and unmonitored redirects
- Wildcard subdomain support (
*.myapp.com) - Custom URL scheme handlers for OAuth callbacks
Opens inside isolated Native WebView window
Matches allowlist: *.veloradev.site

}Who uses this
Teams shipping web apps that need a permanent spot on the desktop.
SaaS teams
Give customers a dock icon instead of a browser tab. Native OS notifications, badge counters, and offline mode, without asking them to install Chrome first.
Internal tools
Run company dashboards in an isolated window. Domain allowlists block external scripts. No browser extensions, no data leaking through tabs.
Offline-first apps
Service worker apps that boot without internet. Velora catches dropped connections and reconnects automatically.
Lightweight utilities
Ship a 5 MB installer instead of asking users to download 140 MB. One task-focused window, instant cold start.
