Web Manifest

Aero automatically generates a web manifest on /manifest.json and includes a link tag on your website to reference it.

Web manifests allow you to narrow the gap between native and web applications. Some of the benefits on mobile devices are:

  • You can specify how the website should be opened from the home screen:
    • Display mode (fullscreen, standalone, minimal-ui, browser)
    • Orientation (portrait, landscape)
  • You get a beautiful splash screen while your website is loading.
  • You can specify a different name and icon for your home screen shortcut.

Configure

Aero apps use the following default configuration:

{
	name: this.config.title,
	short_name: this.config.title,
	icons: this.icons,
	start_url: '/',
	display: 'standalone',
	lang: this.config.languages[0]
}

You can overwrite the default values and add new ones by specifying the manifest members in your config.json:

"manifest": {
	"display": "fullscreen",
	"orientation": "landscape"
}
