What is WhatsApp Desktop?

WhatsApp desktop client, based on the official WhatsApp web app. Build with Electron. This is NOT an official product. This project does not attempt to reverse engineer the WhatsApp API or attempt to reimplement any part of the WhatsApp client. Any communication between the user and WhatsApp servers is handled by official WhatsApp Web itself; this is just a native wrapper for WhatsApp Web, like a browser.

Cross platform (OSX, Windows x64, Linux x64 and ARM v7l) Native notifications System tray icon Open links in browser Badge with the number of notifications in the dock/taskbar Dock icon bounces when a new message is received Focus on contact search input via CMD+F (WIN+F) Phone info window (s/w versions, battery status, etc) Auto-launch on login Start minimized to tray icon Logging system (log to console and userData/log.log) Apply custom CSS stylesheet A couple of things can be configured: Toggle avatar visibility Toggle preview of the messages visibility Set the size for the media thumbs Proxy settings connect to WhatsApp web
