Design docs

https://github.com/explainers-by-googlers/sub-apps


Summary
Sub Apps allow developers to create multiple apps each with distinct names, 
icons and OS Integrations under a single Isolated Web App (IWA) installation. 
Windows of sub apps appear on the shelf with their specific identity, distinct 
from the parent app. Sub Apps are deeply integrated with the OS and offer 
capabilities such as file type association. This enables a single software 
package to represent different, isolated functionalities to the user while 
maintaining a single, unified IWA install and update process.
