Anyway, there's a webapp application that came with Mint and I can use it to setup PWAs through Firefox. I use it for my two router's setup pages.

I just wanted to clarify that it's distro and browser agnostic. permalink fedilink source parent [–] zhvsrl@kbin.social 1 point 3 years ago Nice, I was trying to figure out how to get that working with Firefox. But, to be fair, it's not Firefox that's supporting PWA, it's the mint webapp-manager which is only included with Mint and requires extra steps to install on other OSes. Not as straight forward as PWA being directly supported by Firefox. permalink fedilink source parent
