The developer of NonSteamLaunchers got in touch to mention that a Steam Deck (Decky Loader) plugin is now available for testing, plus the latest release pulling in a handy tool for being able to Remote Play Together anything.
And it makes it easy to make native looking web apps for the following:
Website Shortcut Creator ✔️
Xbox Game Pass ✔️
GeForce Now ✔️
Amazon Luna ✔️
Netflix ✔️
Amazon Prime Video ✔️
Disney+ ✔️
Hulu ✔️

…did you have a question?

Why do you think they shouldn’t add support for them?
Junk Store works well too
