Getting started
weballoon wraps websites you choose into workspace apps: each one opens in its own session, with its own icon and home URL. You group them into workspaces (for example “Work” and “Personal”) and open them from a dock on the side of the window.
What weballoon is
weballoon wraps websites you choose into workspace apps: each one opens in its own session, with its own icon and home URL. You group them into workspaces (for example “Work” and “Personal”) and open them from a dock on the side of the window.
First launch
The first time you open weballoon, you may see an onboarding flow:
You can change theme, language, account, and sync later in Settings.
- Welcome — short introduction.
- Theme & language — Dark or Light interface; language for the weballoon UI (English, Português, Français, Español, Deutsch, Italiano, Русский).
- Account (optional) — You can link an email with a magic link or choose local-only storage and skip.
- Plan — If you linked an email and are not already on a paid plan, you can pick Free or a Pro option; otherwise onboarding can skip ahead.
- Done — You land in the default workspace view.
Main parts of the window
- Title bar — weballoon branding; when an app is open, it shows the app name, a read-only address line, Back, Home, Forward, Reload, and Close app (closes the app view, not the whole program). Window minimize / maximize / close are on the right.
- Dock (left) — Workspace button (initial of current workspace), shortcuts to My Apps, Catalog, Plans, Settings, Notifications bell, a control to show or hide those page shortcuts, then your app icons.
- Main area — Either the selected page (apps grid, catalog, plans, settings) or the active web app full screen.
