    Is it possible to run an app locally, as in without any internet connection?

    In general, the browser security policy restricts web applications from running locally. You can run them without Internet connection, but you need to launch them via the App Manager or a local web server. Alternatively, you can pack your web app in a desktop or mobile bundle with Electron or Cordova.

    I suppose that Firefox is able to run an app locally (but only Firefox, not Chrome or Safari, etc.). A possible solution is to run through a local server such as “krpano Testing Server.app” (it’s very easy to use and very lightweight – https://krpano.com/tools/ktestingserver/). We always have App Manager itself but has a few more steps and we need to open Blender in Advance. By the way, this reman question is pertinent because we can produce material to be explored via a local multimedia kiosk. Yuri, probably you should consider a lightweight and independant from blender version of the App Manager for these cases. Something like the krpano solution.
    Cheers

    Thanks guys. I came up with an interesting solution.
    I downloaded UwAmp server: http://www.uwamp.com/en/ This is a completely portable app that runs from a folder. With this I can simply copy over the Verge3d published folder and run it.
    My app uses WordPress and a slider plugin as well. I mirrored the entire site over to the local server and it works perfectly. :)

    Interesting find rezman. I havent had a thurough look at it, but this seemes to be a “wrapper” of sorts for wamp …? so you are essentialy just running a web server from your local machine (with all that entails), and then you need to start wamp and then run you page in a regular browser right ?

    Ok, thanks. Handy to have it be portable. Will defenetly have a closer look at it. Do you happen to know if there is an easy way to set it not to serve outside the local machine ?

    looks interesting, and easier to use than a Python-based webserver :good:
