How do I start a desktop application from the browser on a Mac?

Question

I'm building a web application that when finished will need to trigger a desktop app to open and load a specific file (or connect to a URL I'm passing to the desktop app).

I'm having a hard time finding documentation about how to do that on a Mac, can you point me to the right place?
