[SOLVED] Missing "Web applets" menu application on LMDE4

Post by sophonos »

Hello to all of you,

I'm a GNU/Linux user since 2007 but I'm a newbie on LMDE.
On Ulyssa I noticed in the menu a nice little applications called Web Applets or so. It allows to turn a website into a standalone app. I think it is very handy, but
I didn't see it on LMDE.
Can anyone please tell me how to add it on LMDE?

Thank you very much in advance.

Web app manager is not preinstalled in LMDE 4. To install it, open a terminal by pressing Ctrl+Alt+T in LMDE4 and type sudo apt-get update && sudo apt-get install webapp-manager -y. Then you'll see a new icon in your menu called 'Web apps', which should work exactly the same as that in Mint 20.1
EDIT: Or if you wanna do it the GUI way, open software manager & type webapp in the search bar in the top right corner. In the results, you'll see something named webapp-manager with 2 clouds in its logo. Click on it and click install.
Hardware problems on LMDE? Solution:
sudo apt-get install -t buster-backports linux-image-amd64 firmware-linux firmware-misc-nonfree

To use a version of LMDE after EOL, replace mint's Firefox with debian's one
