New Web App Manifest member to control what happens when the user navigates to a page within scope of an installed web app.
This feature introduces the "capture_links" member, an enumeration allowing the customization of link capturing behaviour, allowing sites to:
- Automatically open a new PWA window when the user clicks a link to their app.
- Have a "single window mode" like mobile apps.
https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/589
In progress
Very small, since any browser not implementing this will just fall back to the standard behaviour, which is to navigate to links in a browser tab.
This member is also forwards compatible as it can accept a list of behaviours, older browsers will bypass any new ones that are added later.
Gecko: No signal
Edge: Strong positive, this compliments their efforts in specing url_handlers.
WebKit: No signal
Web developers: No signals
Looking for feedback on whether the current behaviours and implementation adequately satisfy real world needs. This experiment is also for web developers to determine whether this additional feature is enough to justify building a PWA over other native app solutions.
Experimental timeline
Start: M90
End: M93
None
Not supported on Android, their window model doesn’t make sense for “new-client”.
