- Rated 1 out of 5by Firefox user 13433096, 3 years agoOtra de "las grandes joyas" que no sirven de nada, te hace instalar un monton de programas y no llega a funcionar.
- Rated 1 out of 5by Fitsoldecot3000, 3 years agoNo me sirve la extension, no me deja avanzar mas allá de la instalación del runtime (eso iniciando la extensión). Me marca: "Failed to extract the runtime". Es una pena porque Firefox es lo que más uso

- Rated 5 out of 5by charlesroper, 3 years agoPWAs in Firefox! At last!
This is an amazingly ingenious and polished solution to the tragic omission of native PWA support in Firefox.
As an organisation so dedicated to the open web, I simply cannot fathom why Firefox does not include this out of the box. I was having to resort to Chromium Edge before I found this, but this not only allows me to use my preferred browser, it also does a better job of exposing extensions I want to use with my PWAs.
There are a few rough edged (such as opening links to a new window closes the PWA window - ouch!). But a brilliant extension nonetheless that ushers in a whole new era of web apps. Wonderful stuff. - Rated 5 out of 5by wchouser3, 3 years agoLove it! I can get rid of Chromium now. It works, and gives back a much needed function.

- Rated 4 out of 5by maxens_wlfr, 3 years agoI can't use it, it always says "Failed to parse PWA manifest", am I doing anything wrong ?
Developer response
posted 3 years agoDoes it happen on all websites or just one? If just one, maybe the website is broken. Try to uncheck "Use the manifest for determining app properties" when installing it. If it happens on all websites, please open an issue on GitHub. - Rated 5 out of 5by 雾雨花精灵, 3 years ago

- Rated 5 out of 5by Felipe Mellado, 3 years agoExcellent extension that adds back functionality that got cut off many years ago (RIP Firefox Prism :( )
Really can't live without this now, I was sick of having to use Nativefier for this kinda thing.
Works perfectly in Arch Linux! - Rated 5 out of 5by Fytuf, 3 years ago

- Rated 1 out of 5by Luciano Sencovici, 3 years agoMuito limitado. Não são todos os sites que pode ser ajustados para PWA, nesse caso o Chrome ou Edge devem ser utilizados para isso. Aqui no Firefox precisa melhorar!!
Developer response
posted 3 years agoSupport for installing arbitrary websites has been added in 0.4.0. This extension now supports basically any website that Chrome and Edge do.
The address bar button still won't appear for such sites (but it also doesn't in Chrome and Edge), but you can install them from the main extension widget/button.
