@cheeaun very nice! I love it when PWAs support web share targets

Hi @cheeaun,
๐Ÿ’ฏ
Is the code open? Where?
Show threadSamirFeb 25
@cheeaun now if only Google would be so nice as to open up WebAPK to other browser vendors...
Show threadDavid MarzalFeb 25

@cheeaun Great.
Do we need to "reinstall" the PWA? I have Phanpy installed (from Firefox) on a Android 14 and I don't see that option.

Or does it only work if "installed" from Chrome?

According to
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Share_API
"share" and "data.text parameter" works on Firefox for Android.
https://caniuse.com/web-share

I was just looking about that functionality this week :)

@cheeaun Ahh, sorry I confused "Web Share Target API" with "Web Share API" ๐Ÿ˜…

Will wait ๐Ÿคž

@DavidMarzalC yeah itโ€™s pretty confusing. Itโ€™s also quite difficult to test the implementation ๐Ÿ˜…

@cheeaun @DavidMarzalC I feel like you could write a book about the path to creating a truly capable PWA.

@cheeaun nice, itโ€™s so annoying that iOS/safari isnโ€™t implementing this.

@cheeaun I don't know if I can take another outstanding feature. What have we done to deserve this!?

@cheeaun That's interesting. How does it work?

@cheeaun omg I have been wishing for a profile shortcut for ages! So glad to see this

@liaizon lol, let me know if it works well. Before this, I was overthinking it and procrastinated too much. Current implementation is kinda minimum-viable-ish.
