A fully featured Facebook Messenger desktop app, beautifully and minimally made with Electron.
Executables coming soon. If you're electron-friendly, please feel free to build and upload executables to this repo!
You can drag the window from the top bar (the title of the conversation).
All keybindings start with Ctrl.
Ctrl Q will close the window, but not the app.
Ctrl R will refresh the browser.
Right-clicking the tray icon opens the menu.
Clicking the tray icon launches the app.
Ctrl Backspace goes back one page in history, aka to previous conversation.
Ctrl M minimizes the window.
Ctrl Shift F sets the app to fullscreen.
Ctrl Y centers the app.
Ctrl Tab toggles the conversation list.
Ctrl Shift I toggles Developer Tools.
There are 4 provided themes ('Light', 'Dark', 'Venom', and 'Custom').
You can select a theme by right-clicking the tray and selecting a Theme. You may set this theme as the default by clicking Customize in the tray menu, and changing the "defaultTheme" property to whatever you wish.
To make your own theme, you can edit the values by clicking Customize in the tray menu. This will change the "Custom" theme, and you can see your changes by selecting the "Custom" theme from the tray menu.
If you have made edits to the current window or current theme, you can select "Full Reload" to reload with your changes.
