WhatsappTray is an Open Source extension for your installed Whatsapp for Desktop that allows you to minimize it to the systray.

This tiny app provides a useful option to have your Whatsapp minimize down to the systray when not immediately in use, a choice that Whatsapp for Desktop does not include. If you use Whatsapp often and like to have a fast way to open and close it, WhatsappTray will fit the bill nicely. This fact is even more evident during this pandemic, where a majority of us are communicating from home. Why not make the experience just a little more intuitive?

Please note, do not start WhatsappTray with administrative rights unless your Whatsapp is also running with administrative rights. Otherwise, it will not work because of communication problems between the two applications.

WhatsappTray allows you to have a quick systray launch option that also offers several right-click menu features. And since you can minimize Whatsapp to the systray without closing it and show unread messages (experimental), make it a streamlined addition for anyone who utilizes Whatsapp.
