【Web App Manifest】
The web app manifest provides information about an application (such as name, author, icon, and description) in a JSON text file. The purpose of the manifest is to install web applications to the homescreen of a device, providing users with quicker access and a richer experience.
Web app manifests are part of a collection of web technologies called progressive web apps, which are web applications that can be installed to the homescreen of a device without needing the user to go through an app store, along with other capabilities such as being available offline and receiving push notifications.
Web app manifests are deployed in your HTML pages using a link tag in the head of your document:
<link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.json">
