I have typed this entire thread in the app - and haven't encountered any issues so far. Caveat Emptor: The technology behind this, the Electron framework, has been criticized for being resource-intensive (i.e. consumes lot of RAM and CPU power) - however, unless you are running a lot of such apps simultaneously, this shouldn't pose any problems.
For reference, here're the command line results from my machine: The errors are owing to some security certificates. Otherwise, the app would have been created with a proper name and also the SP logo. However, you can easily change the launcher icon to anything you like. Google it.

well, kind of You can run/access/browse sunniport as standalone desktop app - i.e. in a separate window of it's own without launching your browser*. Steps: 1. Download and install Node.js in your PC/Mac - detailed steps here 2. Launch console (command prompt) in the directory where you want to save the app 2.1. On a windows machine, navigate to the directory 2.2. Click the window address-bar at the top 2.3. Prefix the word "cmd " to the directory path and press Enter 2.4. This should launch the CMD at the right location3. Type the following command and press Enter: npm install -g nativefier 4. Once done, type the next command: nativefier "http://www.sunniport.com" 5. Ignore the errors 6. You should now see a newly created folder named "APP-win32-x64" at your chosen location 7. Inside it you will find an icon named "APP" - this is your new SP launcher 8. You can rename the directory to "sunniport" and create a shortcut to the launcher on your desktop 9. Next time you wish to access SP, simply double click the launcher and wait for a few seconds 10. That's it --- *well, technically speaking, its still a type of browser, but doesn't look like one
