Risks


Interoperability and Compatibility



*Gecko*: No signal (
https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/630)

*WebKit*: Positive (https://github.com/w3c/manifest/issues/1045)

*Web developers*: No signals - Positive signals from v1 but no signals on
the new format

*Other signals*:

WebView application risks

Does this intent deprecate or change behavior of existing APIs, such that
it has potentially high risk for Android WebView-based applications?



Goals for experimentation

Allow web developers to use this field and provide feedback on the new
format.


Reason this experiment is being extended

The manifest format has significantly changed per
https://github.com/w3c/manifest/issues/1045 to use CSS media queries. We
would like to run a new OT to get feedback from web developers about this
new format.


Ongoing technical constraints



Debuggability

chrome://web-app-internals can be used for debugging, and this has been
added to the DevTools Application pane.


Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac,
Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)?No

Not supported on Android


Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests
<https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md>
