Tried to use guest mode in chrome with no go. So this is not cache related. Tips?
Anyone else experience this?
@sharonyue Chrome, Firefox, and Safari should all support it.
@fovecifer It stands for "progressive web application"
@sharonyue no, on iOS you just do this:
In Android it supposed to be even simpler. As far as I know, this doesn't depend on a browser that much.
@sharonyue that's the question to the developers. Because whether the app will be opened with a browser interface or without it should be described in web manifest linked to the website.
BTW, why do I have a browser window? Is it because Iam using Android, or I am running nodebb 1.14?
It's because you're running 1.14 actually. The actual scripts for installable PWA only appeared in 1.15.
However, browsers are confusing so they also offer the option to "add to home screen" any website, but instead of actually considering its manifest for how it's supposed to run and using the service worker properly it will be just an icon to open that website in the browser.
I would've recommended checking this website to see how it's supposed to work, but it seems to be broken in 1.16.2 unfortunately (mentioned in this issue - service worker was moved to its own directory so only paths starting with /assets/src/
are in its scope.)
EDIT: while it was mentioned in the issue #9193, it wasn't the main focus. I commented on it on #9127, solution to which actually broke the service worker
