Allow the app to be installed as a PWA

See original GitHub issue

The app already includes a manifest.json - but it’s lacking some details. Most notably:

  • It has no Service Worker included, so Chrome etc. says “no”
  • the app lacks any proper icons (although this also applies to favicons) - maybe some should be added 😃

This is a very needy feature (also easy to implement), I don’t know why it’s taking a year-long time. I am coming from a codespace and the experience is not matching due to PWA here in the GitPod.

anyway this helped me for now https://github.com/gitpod-io/gitpod/issues/1445#issuecomment-1028706854
