UPDATE: It seems that the Wunderlist 2 is not working properly with fogger now, you may use Wunderlist 2 with your web browser by visiting http://www.wunderlist.com/.

Fogger is a simple application which turns your web apps into into regular Linux desktop apps. It’s kinda similar to Unity Webapps. Fogger uses WebKitGtk as its web interface. It acts as a bridge between web applications and the linux desktop. It exposes an easy to use JS API to webapps which can be used to interact with the host desktop environment. It can also be used to write basic desktop apps for linux in pure web style.
