Description

First of all, thank you for this great project!

Right now I am using mainly the existing Firefox app provided here: https://github.com/games-on-whales/gow/tree/master/apps/firefox

This setup works perfectly for streaming Firefox to my MacBook. Out of privacy reasons I would love to use Brave.

Feature Request

I would love to see Brave Browser added as an official app, similar to the existing Firefox integration.

Ideally, this would include:

  • A Brave app container comparable to the Firefox app
  • Easy launching and streaming via Moonlight
  • Similar configuration and usability as the Firefox app

Motivation / Use Case

Brave is my preferred browser due to its privacy features, built-in ad blocking, and Chromium compatibility. Having Brave available as a first-class app in WOLF would make the platform even more flexible, especially for users who rely on Chromium-based browsers.

Additional Notes

I understand this may require maintaining another browser image, but from a user perspective it would be a very valuable addition.
If there are guidelines or contribution steps for adding a new app, I would be happy to look into helping or testing.

Thanks again for your amazing work!
