And, considering every service is going for a web-based approach instead of a native experience, we need solutions to manage the web apps efficiently. + +An open-source Linux app, Tangram, could be the solution. + +### Tangram: A Browser Tailored to Run Web Applications + +![][1] + +You can choose to use some of the [best Linux web browsers][2] to run web applications. But, if you want something that entirely focuses on web application experience, Tangram is an exciting option. + +The developer took inspiration from GNOME Web, [Franz][3], and [Rambox][4]. + +You do not get any fancy features but just the ability to change the user agent and manage the web applications you have logged in to. + +It can be used to access multiple social media platforms, chat messengers, work collaboration applications, and more. + +### Features of Tangram + +![][5] + +Considering it is a minimal browser based on WebKitGTK, not much you can do here. To list some of the essentials, here’s what you can do: + + * Re-order tabs in the sidebar + * Easily add any web service as a web app + * Ability to tweak the user agent (Desktop/mobile) + * Keyboard shortcuts + * Change position of the sidebar (tab bar) + + + +All you need to do is load up a web service, log in, and click on “**Done**” to add it as a web application. + +![][6] + +### Installing Tangram in Linux + +Tangram is available as a Flatpak for every Linux distribution, and you can also find it in [AUR][7]. + +If you want to install it via the terminal, type in the following command: + +``` +flatpak install flathub re.sonny.Tangram +``` + +You may refer to our [Flatpak guide][8] if you do not have it enabled on your system. + +To explore more about it, you can check out its [GitHub page][9]. + +[Tangram Browser][10] + +Have you tried this yet? Do you prefer web applications or native applications?
