One of the parameters included in this file is the id
property. This parameter is crucial as it uniquely identifies the PWA across browsers and devices, enabling a consistent user experience.
This id
parameter should be consistent and not change, even if other manifest properties are updated. It's important for maintaining the application's identity for things like saved user preferences and home screen shortcuts.
When absent, an ID is determined using the start_url
parameter, the manifest location and its scope
. Adding an id
to the manifest allows to change the start_url
and the manifest path. Note that the domain shall not change.
