See eg https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2014/11/Support-for-installable-web-apps-with-webapp-manifest-in-chrome-38-for-Android?hl=en

  • This will show the specified icon and name when adding it to the home screen.

homescreen

  • It will show a splash screen while loading Piwik initially:

  • It will launch the browser without header so you can actually see more of the content.

Example definition:

{
  "short_name": "Piwik",
  "name": "Piwik - Open Source Analytics",
  "icons": [
    {
      "src": "../images/favicon.png",
      "sizes": "32x32",
      "type": "image/png"
    }
  ],
  "start_url": "../../../",
  "display": "standalone",
  "orientation": "portrait"
}

We could change some colors but not needed for now I'd say. Specifying a web app manifest theme color might be useful later.

@mattab can you send me the favicon in a higher resolution? Eg up to 192x192

We should not add manifest if a custom logo is specified.

That's again something new and great.

Here is the large res favicon, freshly created from the SVG logo:

favicon-large

Looking forward to using our Piwik web app as if it was a mobile app!

done. Although I think it's not as relevant for 2.X as it is not as good on mobile anyway :)

We could later add some more favicon metadata for iOS devices etc but this issue should be closed once the PR is merged
