- Valutata 4 su 5di Utente Firefox 6909674, 14 giorni faIt works for me on Linux, unfortunately it doesn't on Mac M1, I can't make it work, even though the installation of the necessary packages is successful. Anyone here help me??

pubblicato il 14 giorni faHave you linked the manifest as described in the installation instructions? Also, please create a discussion on GitHub: https://github.com/filips123/PWAsForFirefox/discussions - Valutata 4 su 5di Jake Hall, 23 giorni faIt's a little finicky out of the box on Zorin OS, which defaults to flatpak Firefox. But I found I could switch to the snap version and have success installing the additional components necessary. I've also noticed I often need to launch PWAs twice, the first time they close immediately and the second launch they perform fine. I like being able to control whether the PWA uses it's own or a shared profile. I've found the shared profile useful for using Office365 apps like Word, Excel, Outlook, and Teams which I need for work, but isolated profiles are great most of the time.

- Valutata 4 su 5di jpxsat, 4 mesi faIt does what it says! THANK YOUU!!! It asks for a lot of things when you install it, but then all ok -- only 4 stars because I personally prefer to "detach" the tabs, instead of going all over everything everytime... case: having my social media profile running, my firefox has all the extensions that I need/want, and I install the social media as a PWA... but then I have to do all over again as in the PWA there's a new profile, so no session, no extensions, nothing... I think this is the intention, but would be nice to have an option "use the base firefox profile instead of a new one"

Generally what I would expect is that if an app is already running, I can use spotlight or Alfred to take me to that running instance right away. That way I can rapidly navigate through the UI. However, with this extension, when I look for the name of my installed app and hit enter, if there's an instance running already, it doesn't care and creates a second instance, which completely breaks my navigation. Small thing, but it would be cool if it could be patched (other apps in system don't create another instance unless we explicitly tell them so, so it would be nice if this could be the case for this SSB solution as well)Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 9 mesi faYou can enable this behaviour by setting "When launching a web app that is already opened" to "Focus the existing window" in the app browser settings. If you have problems, please let me know on GitHub. - Valutata 4 su 5di David Vales, 10 mesi faThat add-on is amazing, i really like it, but, the sessions synced log off on installed apps, for example, my icloud session is on in firefox tab, but in the pwa is logged out.
and the firefox sync service is apart for the runtime - Valutata 4 su 5di Jason, un anno faChanging my review... I hadn't followed the full instructions to install the extension, was more complicated than simply installing an extension but works now.

- Valutata 4 su 5di Utente Firefox 14157522, un anno faGreat! is it possible to make the PWA startup on boot? like on Edge PWA, you can have your PWA start up automatically at login.
EDIT: Nevermind! You can just copy the shortcut that PWA creates into your startup folder.
Idea: I use this to create an AirMessage window to view iPhone texts. If I open a link in a message, it tries to open in the PWA app. Would it be possible to make links open up in my main FF installation?Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il un anno faYou can enable "open out-of-scope URLs in default browser" in the PWA settings to open message links in the main Firefox. You will also have to add "accounts.google.com" to the "Domains always allowed to be opened in the PWA browser" field. - Valutata 4 su 5di Myrddin R Emrys, 2 anni faIt has worked great to allow me to use Firefox to create a better-running NightRide.fm app than the chrome-based one otherwise available.
Thanks! - Valutata 4 su 5di tobias hochguertel, 2 anni faWorks so far well, but has the downside, that it runs complete seperated from the desktop firefox instance. I use it do have gmail as APP icon, and window seperated next to Firefox Browser open, but it has the downside that all Links which I click get open in the PWA instance, and not get handeled by the operation system setuped default app for links. I'm sure in the future that will get solved.
- Valutata 4 su 5di Squeaky Pancakes, 3 anni faWorks really well, better than electron apps most of the time.
My one problem is it for some reason ignores XDG Portals on Linux meaning that KDE users are stuck with the terrible GTK file picker.Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 3 anni faYou can enable XDG portals by setting `widget.use-xdg-desktop-portal` to `true` in `about:config` inside PWA profile (you can open `about:config` by pressing F6 and then typing it into the popup).
It seems Firefox by default never uses XDG portals, but distros with KDE instead set some environment variable (`GTK_USE_PORTAL=1`) that makes Firefox use portals. However, because FirefoxPWA launches the default Mozilla-provided Firefox without setting any additional environment variables, Firefox won't use portals unless you manually enable them in `about:config`. - Valutata 4 su 5di Red, 3 anni fa
- Valutata 4 su 5di maxens_wlfr, 3 anni faI can't use it, it always says "Failed to parse PWA manifest", am I doing anything wrong ?
Replica dello sviluppatore
pubblicato il 3 anni faDoes it happen on all websites or just one? If just one, maybe the website is broken. Try to uncheck "Use the manifest for determining app properties" when installing it. If it happens on all websites, please open an issue on GitHub. - Valutata 4 su 5di Gilganyx, 3 anni fa
