About this extension
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are web apps that use web APIs and features along with progressive enhancement strategy to bring a native app-like user experience to cross-platform web applications. Although Firefox supports many of Progressive Web App APIs, it does not support functionality to install them as a standalone system app with an app-like experience.
This project creates a custom modified Firefox runtime to allow websites to be installed as standalone apps and provides a console tool and browser extension to install, manage and use them.
You can check installation and usage instructions in the repository wiki.
Note: I will appreciate it if you read and participate in a GitHub discussion to suggest how to make this project more user-friendly and which features would you like the most.

Warning: Extension cannot detect the native program when using sandboxed Firefox (when using Flatpak on Linux). This is a limitation of the Native Messaging API and cannot be fixed. Check #76 for more details and workarounds.
