manifest `display` property

See original GitHub issue

Do we want to suggest or require any specific display property for PWA?

The options, thanks to a great presentation by @brucelawson

"display": "standalone"

image

"display": "fullscreen"

image

"display": "browser" (the default)

image

display: minimal-ui also exists in the spec, though I’m not sure Chrome supports it.


IMO, standalone is the preferred UX. (Though I can see uses of fullscreen)

Should we require either standalone or fullscreen, with a strong preference for standalone?

we should be recommending either standalone or fullscreen (anything else should be a warning imo.) Fullscreen would be frequently used for games, video players etc.
