A tool to install, manage and use Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) in Mozilla Firefox
Updating the Firefox runtime to 106.0 will add the "Firefox View" (Firefox logo) widget to the taskbar. This is a one-time thing that will only happen when updating existing profiles from before 106.0. You can remove the widget manually.

Support for protocol handlers (#83): Protocol handlers (on web apps that register them) can be enabled from the extension web app settings. Enabled handlers are registered to the operating system and can be called from any other program. Note: This is not implemented yet on macOS.
Support for changing theme color using meta tags (#96): Websites can now dynamically overwrite theme color using meta tags. This can be disabled in the runtime settings.
Add support for automatic web app launching (#115): Any (enabled) URLs will be intercepted by the extension and re-launched in their web app windows. This feature can be enabled from the extension settings, and then configured for each web app. Note: Feature is experimental, may not work with all websites, and may impact performance.

System integration has been improved: Icon downloading and parsing are now more reliable. Protocol handlers are now supported. SVG icons are now supported.
Some terminology has been changed to be more consistent: "Site" now represents a website available on the web, which you can install to your computer as a "web app" (PWA). "Site" is still used internally in some places and in connector requests to avoid breaking backward compatibility.
Update checking has been changing (#114):
Extension and native versions are now only "incompatible" when they differ in the major component.
It is now possible to disable the update popup using a preference settings.show-update-popup
(also available from the extension settings).

Icon bar can now only be toggled if only Ctrl
and Alt
keys have been pressed (#177).
