Explainer

https://github.com/WICG/sw-launch/blob/master/declarative_link_capturing.md


Specification

None


Summary

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.

Risks



Interoperability and Compatibility

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



Goals for experimentation

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


Ongoing technical constraints

None


Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)?

Not supported on Android, their window model doesn’t make sense for “new-client”.


Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests?

No

Sounds good thanks. M91-M94 it is then.
