Filament: Apps for Your Website
Interesting premise here: Filament purports to be an app store of sorts, but for any website. The idea is that you pick the app you want – say, a share bar on your website – and enter your URL, then drag & drop the "app" into your site. Haven't tried it ourselves, but it looks kinda cool. |
