    WebCatalog has the same functionality as Fluid, but with more. WebCatalog has many pre-configured sites to make into apps and makes them into Electron apps which have more functionality than your general web browser will have.

    TLDR: its developers recommend using the browsers own feature (save as an app in Chromium, Firefox has that too though I don't know the feature's name). It's safer for security as they're constantly updated.

    Websites have become incredibly powerful tools, often more powerful than traditional desktop apps. However, despite their usefulness, they still live as tabs in our cluttered web browsers and aren’t given all of the benefits of native desktop apps.
