If a website has a compatible PWA manifest the there will be an item labelled "install" in the three-dot menu of Firefox in place of usual "add to homescreen" item.
Edit: There's a few other requirements as well for the website to be considered installable as PWA, such as it must have a registered service worker so it can work offline. But regardless, if the website provides all the requirements then it can just be installed straight from the menu.
Yep sites like annas archive have it. But honestly not many sites have this available
I'm looking at alexandrite for lemmy. But it would be much more useful to me as a standalone app. That 's how I use it on desktop as a pwa
Just checked, no install option unfortunately
Is there a way to force a website to open as a pwa?
