Like PhoneGap, but for desktop apps...
Since both Mac and Windows 8 have app stores, PhoneGap makes more sense there.
On the other side, a simple generic "App Shell" and "Web App Store" may be more useful for general purpose apps...
There will be much more action in this space...
The Packager leverages Chromium, an open-source project from Google that also powers the Google Chrome browser. Not only does the Packager make it easy to transform web apps to native, it also makes it easy to integrate with native APIs. We provide APIs that the application can use to integrate with the desktop, including but not limited to window and menu management, file system access and native dialogs.
Using Sencha Desktop Packager is easy. It’s distributed as a simple ZIP archive, requiring no installation; simply unpack the archive to a working directory. The archive also includes the documentation and a collection of ready-made examples.
