AQI Desktop - a NativePHP app
Having worked with Electron and Tauri to build desktop apps, I always thought it would be super cool if someone figured a way to build desktop apps with PHP. Well, that dream came true - in a way - when https://nativephp.com/ was announced at Laracon US 2023.

The main requirements for v1 were: Taskbar app - NativePHP makes this very easy.

I think that building desktop apps with PHP is absolutely sick! The cool thing is that it's framework-agnostic, so you can install NativePHP in any PHP project, and it will transform it into a desktop app.
