Turn any website into a Linux, Windows or macOS desktop app with open source tools Nativefier and Electron (may not be lighter on resources though)

Nativefier takes a URL and wraps it with the Electron framework, which runs the open source Chromium browser as its backend but runs as its own executable application. Nativefier is licensed under the MIT license and is available for Linux, Windows, and macOS.
Nativefier runs Chromium underneath. So it's able to remember your session just like any browser does. And it's worth reiterating that this is likely not going to be lighter on resources at all, but it may be a nice option for some who like to autostart specific web apps.
