The Credential Management API makes sign in super simple for users. # Credential Management API: Public Key Credentials Linux support was added in Chrome 70, but was accidentally left out of the original version of this post. Mac support is expected to arrive in Chrome 72. See my Desktop PWAs post for complete details. If they click add, Chrome will add your PWA to their start menu and desktop. Then, when the user clicks the button, call prompt() on the saved event Chrome will then show the prompt to the user. Save the event then, add some UI (like an install app button) to tell the user your app can be installed. All of the work you've done for your existing Progressive Web App still applies! If your app meets the standard PWA criteria, Chrome will fire the beforeinstallprompt event. Getting started isn't any different than what you're already doing today. Service workers ensure that they're fast, and reliably, the app window experience makes them feel like any other installed app. Once installed, they're launched from the Start menu, and run like all other installed apps, without an address bar or tabs. Users can now install Desktop Progressive Web Apps on Windows & Linux! # Desktop Progressive Web Apps on Windows & Linux Want the full list of changes?
