[Feature Idea] Any plans to create a ChromeOS app on the Web Store? #194

skylar-eng commented 6 years ago

Do you have any plan to put this on the ChromeOS Web Store in the future? Maybe with the ability to work without an internet connection?

BelleNottelling commented 6 years ago

This can be done easily! I did it just using the tutorial here: https://developer.chrome.com/apps/first_app

manifest.json:

{
  "name": "v86!",
  "description": "v86 for Chrome Apps",
  "version": "0.1",
  "manifest_version": 2,
  "app": {
    "background": {
      "scripts": ["showapp.js"]
    }
  }
}

loadapp.js:

chrome.app.runtime.onLaunched.addListener(function() {
  chrome.app.window.create('index.html', {
    'outerBounds': {
      'width': 1920,
      'height': 1080
    }
  });
});

@copy Would you be interested in a PR?

Would you be interested in a PR?

Thanks for the offer, but I don't think those files need to be in the repo.

I think a first step would be to make v86 work offline (like some websites do).

@copy this could be done using Service Workers, as #219 would complement that

ChromeOS apps will be deprecated soon - consider closing this issue.

I'll work on that using Workbox.

Time for a PWA, then.

Maybe put it on the Play Store?

PWA works in this case then! Although we do need to make the UI a bit more intuitive.

@sr229 how is the pwa going? or is it just a speculation for now?
