Workfront Desktop Application

Description -> Can we make a Workfront Desktop Application.

Why is this feature important to you -> This would help as we could set Workfront to launch on startup which would increase usage and be helpful when it comes to change management and adoption.

How would you like the feature to work -> The same way it works in the web browser but via an app.

Current Behaviour -> Workfront is currently web browser based.

    If you Google "windows create app from URL", there are many ways to do the same on Windows boxes, FYI

    @richard__carlson, I was able to set this up and it is working for me and in our team. Thank you! 

    @randyroberts - our users all use Windows but we will keep this in mind if we have any mac users in future. Thank you!

    There are also some apps that will accommodate this. On the Mac, there is an app called Fluid that I've used before. Fluid allows you to make a an "app" from a url and place it on your desktop, or wherever you want.

    Could you make a shortcut to the URL on your desktop and then put that in your startup items?  This would launch the specific URL in your web browser.
