@auchenberg it's really a Chrome feature as web platform feature (manifest) already had an intent. I believe it is behind a flag.1 reply 0 retweets 1 like -

@kennethrohde Yup, looks like it was put behind a flag for all platforms on June 5th. Yay :) https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src.git/+/4d15cab83cf46e1e5b90b30541911c108b20c8d6 …1 reply 0 retweets 1 like
