  I don’t know what that button does but I’m fairly sure it’s not about support for web-apps. Firefox has always supported web-apps, because web-apps are just interactive websites.

    It’s the button to “install” a PWA by pulling the info from the manifest.json

    Firefox has always supported web-apps, because web-apps are just interactive websites

    There’s been partial support that needed to be enabled in about:config. It was officially released this month.

      Progressive Web-apps are a particular kind of web-app. The person you replied to just referred to “webapps”, not this special kind of web-app. Firefox has always supported web-apps.

      The nature of progressive web-apps means that you can use them even if the browser doesn’t explicitly support them. All that explicit support does is wrap the web-app in an icon and reduced browser window.
