Features / Motivation
I wanted to have a simple tool which stays in the tray and let you define custom menu items to
- launch programs
- execute web requests (
GET/POST) - has a little web browser integrated (using CefSharp)
- has a little media player integrated (using LibVLCSharp)
- is a portable application, to have a kind of central configuration while also showing specific menu items only on certain machines
to have some things at hand right from the tray - I haven't found that, so this is Traything.
I personally use this to conveniently control my smart home and many more things.
