Extension request - PWA

mrichards

Hi Blomstra's
Could I please request that the PWA extension be added to the extension wish list that you (will) support?

FYI interestingly, before our forum was migrated to blomstra, we had PWA installed, and some of our users already had PWA apps installed and in use... which continue to work after we migrated. Not sure if that is behavior you would have expected?

Thanks, Marc

mrichards Hi Marc, thanks for bringing this to my attention again. The drawback of PWA is that it needs some additional files on disk. Honestly I haven't looked at whether we can make it available, as it also takes down the whole forum when it hits any issues -- not just the users on the PWA, but the whole forum will be unavailable.

We will look at this extension, but I cannot promise this to happen soon as stabilising our platform for public access has priority.

interesting that our PWA apps that were already installed continue to work?

mrichards sadly I have little knowledge about the inner workings of the PWA extension, so yes those mobile devices linked might still work...

Installed on the platform.

Closing.
