@manekinekko @kennethrohde @thejohnjansen @w3c The presentation was recorded, but not the discussion. I think @dontcallmeDOM has more background regarding availability of the video.

@digitarald @patrickbrosset It’s not ground-shaking as an experience, but it makes the app installable via prompt, so with File Handling (web.dev/file-handling/) you can make it the default handler for .js, .html, .css,… files and friends.

@CharlieCroom @kennethrohde @andreban @firt The problem is that whenever I hit it it’s when I’m not plugged in to my computer with my phone and can’t debug… Never seen it on desktop, but now we have at least two people who’ve hit it either on Android or

You can now play with those dark arts ⤵️ in the browser: web.dev/file-system-ac…. By the way, we’ll soon have a `move()` method as well, after the discussion yesterday: docs.google.com/document/d/1RB…. twitter.com/xkcd/status/14…

@kennethrohde @andreban @firt I get the same blank screen on the PWA on iOS occasionally as well. Doesn’t seem specific to Android 12. Is this a known issue, @CharlieCroom?

Together with my co-hosts @kennethrohde (Intel) and @thejohnjansen (Microsoft), I’ll be hosting a breakout session later today (17:00 CET / 8AM PST) on Project Fugu 🐡 in the context of @w3c virtual (w3.org/2021/10/TPAC/O…) .

@digitarald @patrickbrosset I would love my VS Code PWA to work (with my local files) when I open it when on an airplane. Having at least the offline fallback page (web.dev/offline-fallba…) could be a first step in this direction.

@firt It looks like it’s this: web.dev/pwa-url-handle… (which will change after the origin trial).

@cramforce To be fair, they said the same about Computer Science as well. “Look left, look right! One of your two neighbors won’t be there after the first semester. Oh, and welcome to the Informatics Ⅰ class.” @KITKarlsruhe

@edent When it’s freeform, I always use the same code word. When they force me to make choices, I try to honestly answer, since there is no damn way to recall the answers if I lie, since password managers don’t seem to cover this area yet. Also, secur

quicksave2k SVG icons in Web App Manifests are supported in Chrome on desktop, but not on Android. 😲
That’s why we still have to manually create icons at different resolutions. 😞

So… I’m fixing it. 🧰
Check out Chrome Canary 🐤 for Android.

@__apf__ @patmeenan Do the responsibilities include porting Chromium to iOS? 🤡

@kennethrohde @henrylim96 If only there were a way to get Chromium onto iOS… 🙄 Best of both worlds.

@gauntface Not just you. I think, in part, with everyone working from home in isolation and only connected to others over video occasionally, it’s because all you see now are the shiny ✨ announcements in tweets, blogs, or emails, but not the sweat and

@equinusocio @argyleink Not technically. An earlier version of the spec included a third value, `no-preference`. It was meant to indicate that the user has made no preference known to the system. Since no browser ever implemented it, the value was removedweb.dev/prefers-color-…
