Can a black browser tab / window / screen be useful? Try BlackPWA, our tiny side project

BlackPWA is a tiny side project that emerged from our ongoing exploration of minimalist applications and the color black. (After all, we are the authors of Pitch Black Wallpaper and Pitch Black Wallpaper Pro.)

BlackPWA may very well be the simplest Progressive Web App (PWA) you've ever seen. It can be a black (and blank) browser tab, a black window, or a black screen. However, despite its simplicity, BlackPWA can be a versatile tool for distraction-free writing, eye rest, focus, presentations, privacy, PWA testing, and screen management. It's movable, resizable, full-screen capable, easy to install, and lightweight.

Try it now! You can try it in your browser or easily install it from your browser on your device.

Like some of our other projects, BlackPWA is open source and available on GitHub. Feel free to contribute, report issues, suggest improvements, and show your support by starring the repository!
