Double-click the title bar to toggle fullscreen. On Windows and Linux, `--hide-window-decorations` gives a frameless window with a top drag region. On Mac, swipe to go back or forward and drag the title bar to move the window, and the menu bar has navigation, zoom and window controls.

## Command-Line Packaging
```bash
# Install Pake CLI
pnpm install -g pake-cli
# Basic usage, fetches the website icon automatically
pake https://github.com --name GitHub
# Advanced usage, custom options
pake https://weekly.tw93.fun --name Weekly --icon https://cdn.tw93.fun/pake/weekly.icns --width 1200 --height 800 --hide-title-bar
```
The first build sets up the environment and takes a while, later builds are fast. See the [CLI Usage Guide](docs/cli-usage.md) for every option, or try [GitHub Actions Online Building](docs/github-actions-usage.md) if you'd rather skip the command line.
Using Pake from a script or AI agent? Pass `--json` for machine-readable results, describe apps declaratively with `--config app.json` ([schema](schema/pake.schema.json)), and package local build output directly with `pake ./dist --name MyTool`. See [llms.txt](llms.txt) for the full agent contract. The official skill installs like this:
```text
# Claude Code
/plugin marketplace add tw93/Pake
/plugin install pake@pake
# Codex
codex plugin marketplace add tw93/Pake
codex plugin add pake@pake
```
Copy this to your AI agent to get started:
```text
Use Pake (npm i -g pake-cli) to package webpages as desktop apps. Read https://unpkg.com/pake-cli@latest/llms.txt first; always run pake with --json and parse stdout as a single JSON object. Package <url-or-local-dist> into an app named <AppName>.
```
## Development
Requires Rust `>=1.85` and Node `>=22` (recommended LTS; `>=20.9` also works), see the [Tauri documentation](https://v2.tauri.app/start/prerequisites/) for setup. If you are new to this toolchain, the CLI is the easier path.
```bash
# Install dependencies
pnpm i
# Local development [right-click to open debug mode]
pnpm run dev
# Build application
pnpm run build
```
For style customization, feature enhancement, container communication and other advanced features, see [Advanced Usage Documentation](docs/advanced-usage.md).
