Add native Windows desktop support so CloakBrowser Manager can run directly on Windows without Docker or KasmVNC. Changes: - database.py: platform-aware data directory (Windows uses %LOCALAPPDATA%) - vnc_manager.py: detect KasmVNC availability; graceful no-op on Windows - browser_manager.py: skip VNC setup on Windows, use native window + HW GL - main.py: handle missing VNC in WebSocket proxy and clipboard endpoints - ProfileViewer.tsx: show 'Browser running on desktop' when VNC unavailable - run.bat/run.py: one-click Windows launcher (auto-installs deps + builds) - New: comprehensive Chinese tutorial Backward compatible — Docker/Linux workflow unchanged.

Thanks for this — really nice work, and clearly a lot of thought went into it. Running the Manager natively on Windows without Docker/KasmVNC is a direction we genuinely like, and the implementation is clean: gating VNC behind an availability check and falling back to native windows is the right approach, and we appreciate that the Docker/Linux path stays untouched. We're heads-down on other priorities at the moment, so we won't be able to fully review and merge it right away — but we definitely want to come back to it when we have the bandwidth. We'll leave it open as a tracking PR. Thanks again for the contribution. Let us know if you have any questions in the meantime! |
