Hey PH. Plash is a free and open source app I have been working on for about 2 years. Some of you might remember Active Desktop and Plash is kinda like that, but much more powerful. The cool thing about Plash is that there are so many possibilities when you can make a website your desktop wallpaper. Here are some quick ideas of what you could show: - Random Unsplash image - Bing Photo of the Day - Clock - Calendar - Personal stats - Random color - Custom built website There are many more ideas here. You can even customize the websites using CSS and JavaScript. For example, hiding distracting elements. While Plash requires macOS 11, there's a macOS 10.15 compatible version available here. I welcome feedback, either here or through the feedback button in the app. 🙏

Where do the images come from? Are they just screenshots that can be uploaded as wall paper?

@thea_mark What images are you referring to? If you mean the dog image in the above screenshot, it's Plash showing a random image from Unsplash.

Love the option to use custom CSS and JavaScript to customize the page! Any plans to support multiple websites side by side?

@rico_g I don't have any immediate plans to support that. It's quite complicated to implement and most users are fine with just a single window.
