This provides installers for Windows/Mac/Linux that install a dedicated application which hosts outlook's web application.

I have found the Outlook Web application to be a great email client for a number of reasons.

• It is always running the latest version without having to upgrade or update.
• It gets new features faster (such as sweep).
• It is fast and responsive.

The one thing that has prevented me from adopting it is the fact that it runs as a browser tab.

• It gets lost in the soup of other tabs.
• It is harder to get to my email tab because it isn't on my active app list.
• Browser hotkeys sometimes interact with the application.
• It doesn't give me notifications when the brower goes away.

To solve this I have created (well forked eNkrus version and tweaked) an Electron app which simply runs the Outlook Web app in a dedicated application frame:

This hostshttp://mail.office365.com and is suitable for using with enterprise work/school environments

This hostshttp://outlook.com and is suitable for using for personal email.
