@kevin @lakshman_pasala Very helpful!
Also, try to add operating system choice.
Usecase: Someone may not have mac os but want to run some apps on it.
@ashish_jangra , we are working on this feature. We are just figuring out how to give this to all our free and paid users as well. Expect this to be shipped in the coming months ๐
Hi PH Community,
We are twin founders and along with few exceptional people are building neverinstall. We iterated our product from a no install dev workspace to no install any desktop application platform.
We realized that streaming applications have immense potential in solving key problems -
Saving hardware resources
Modern-day applications are becoming resource-heavy, users often need to make the decision on whether to upgrade their devices or seek out a new one. This is expensive and wasteful.
Real-time collaboration
Our favorite desktop apps often lack real time collaboration, we are trying to bring these applications to the web so that we're able to bring more flexibility into app workflows.
Accessibility
A lot of apps are not accessible on multiple devices especially the developer apps. We solve this by bringing these apps to your web browser and make them truly accessible from any device or OS.
Congrats on the launch folks!
I've been a beta tester for the past 2 months and Its been great experience! I've shifted most of my personal browsing and development with teammates to neverinstall.
Waiting for new softwares like Blender and Adobe suite to come up on neverinstall and not hear my fan sound again.
๐ Keep building!
Thanks for the feedback @athulsuresh . We will keep adding applications on our platform.
Congrats on the launch. I am super impressed how much the product has transformed over the last 1 year. Excited to see what's coming in the future.
Congrats on the launch!
Great product especially for individuals like me who have low pc configurations but high usage of chrome and other development tools.
Waiting for software like Unity and Blender to come up on neverinstall.
Cheers and keep going!
Tried this out a couple of days ago as a beta user and it's amazing. Been using it for all my coding stuff since then. No complaints, great product. Great job! ๐
@em_pablo , thanks for your feedback! We are working on adding more devtools and will add XCode in the coming months.
@em_pablo @franz_pouchet , we will be adding RHEL in the coming months.
This looks great, kudos to the team! question to the ?makers what about privacy issues, how do you ensure data is safe/not?
Hey @fardeenkhan , Thank you.
We ensure that your personal data is protected and never shared with third parties. The app makes sure that all data is deleted after every session is over.
All apps on our platform are either ephemeral or persistent as the user chooses. Ephemeral workspaces by nature are short-lived as long as the user is using them and would be deleted (along with all the user data) immediately after the session ends while persisted workspaces will persist user data across sessions with multiple layers of security.
@fardeenkhan @meeth_panchal Except that in your privacy policy you state under: "Types of information collected by us: Sensitive Personal Information":
I. physical, physiological and mental health condition;
II. sexual orientation;
III. insurance data;
IV. important dates and events;
V. personal interest;
VI. banking and finance related documents (excluding passwords, pins etc.);
VII. legal documents, agreements;
VIII. vehicle registration documents;
ref: https://neverinstall.com/privacy
obviously this is pretty concerning to spot in a privacy policy... can you explain why you would collect this data? Unfortunately with this stuff being collectable I would Neverinstall your product :/
@fardeenkhan @meeth_panchal I see you updated your privacy policy haha, i'm glad that I mentioned this then!
Yes, thanks a lot for that. We donโt collect the above information. We immediately updated it.
Very interesting product. I just tried it and I can say I'm impressed. Looking at neverinstall and earlier @suhail's product Mighty , it feels like we'll see more and more virtual computers getting their fair share and native machines acting as a thin client in the future. Very excited to see how this pans out.
One question ?makers, the current desktop environment seems to be running on a Linux machine, do you also plan to use MacOS in the future? Being an Apple user for a long time, I would feel at home when the interface is something that I use daily.
@jaipandya , thanks for your feedback. You are bang on about the future of native machines acting as thin clients making applications truly accessible from any device.
We are planning to add Windows and MacOS machines in the next few months that will support all the Windows or MacOS only apps as well.
Absolutely loved the product. Congrats @ram_pasala and @lakshman_pasala on the hunt.
I have been testing this for a while now and have honestly gotten addicted to using it. Really looking forward to seeing new use cases you guys would be solving, especially for the Film and Design industry.
Waiting to see the amazing growth you guys incur in the coming months!
@anshnanda, while @Mighty and we have some similarities we are trying to do few things differently.
Browser as the distribution: We firmly believe a browser these days is ubiquitous to the internet and thus we want the users to use any of these apps as web apps only, without the need to download or install. Mighty wants to replace existing apps by distributing its desktop version of that app.
Apps marketplace: We have an apps-agnostic approach to our platform. Wherein, we can keep adding any apps as we grow. Kinda similar to what you have with Google Playstore or Apple Appstore. We would soon allow Software publishers to publish and distribute their apps and even give pay-as-you-go payment options as opposed to expensive annual licenses.
Free apps should be Free: We to additional optimization to ensure that we can give all Free Apps for Free and not make users pay for usage
@lakshman_pasala That is a great vision! Good job. Unfortunately, the website seems to be down for me right now but I am excited to try it!
Super cool product! I would greatly appreciate a traditional email/password sign up option. I don't have any of the accounts (gmail, apple, twitter, etc.) you require for sign up.
@guytaylor88 Thanks for the feedback, yes we would be supporting email/password signup option very soon!
Really glad to see neverinstall live on the PH community.
Been an active beta user of the platform for the last three months and was completely blown away with the performance.
The best thing about the platform is the user experience and speed. You'll be amazed at these two. I can guarantee that you'll immediately love the platform once you start using it!
Congrats Lakshman and Ram on the big launch!
@gautham_ramakrishnan1 , thanks a lot for being one of our early beta users!
Congrats on the launch! The product looks very interesting, especially the real time collaboration.
Excellent product! I hope more apps are coming to the list! Thank you for sharing and Congrats on launching!
