I've made a companion electron app (called roonweb) to have the web controller run in a frameless window with hidden titlebar and made still dragable by the album art. I've compiled it to an electron exe with all dependencies.

This is version 1.0 working fully with Roon Web Controller v1.2.

It also works with Roon Web Controller v2 Alpha but does not yet allow you to drag the window around.

The included AHK script allows you toggle the app to semi-transparent and keep ontop.

Standard and semi-transparent modes side by side.

All controls still work of course.

At the moment it's hard coded to run on the roon core server (localhost:8080) but you can manually change the address in line 26 of Roonweb.js

Change the line between the single quote to whatever address and port you want to point it at (you only need to change this if if running it on a remote PC/device to point it at your Roon Core Server)
window.loadURL('**http://localhost:8080**')

You’ll need to drop an updated nowplaying.css file into your user appdata under C:\Users<CurrentUserName>\AppData\Roaming\RoonExtensions\node_modules\roon-web-controller\public\css\nowplaying.css

I've created the first windows installer for RoonWeb App. You will still need to manually copy the nowplaying.css file as per the readme.

You still need to install Roon Extension Manager and Roon Web Controller and follow their relevant instructions before RoonWeb will work.
