Description

So far, Linkbox's development has focused exclusively on the Android operating system.
Since the application is built with Capacitor, we can leverage it to create a progressive web application (PWA).

The advantages are quite obvious:

  • We can reach any device with a browser, regardless of the operating system (e.g. Linux Phones)
  • Installation outside Google Play and F-Droid via the "Add To Homescreen" function
  • Users can self-host the application
  • User gets updates faster

Solution

Since Linkbox has just been released and is still young we now have a good opportunity to refactor the code base.
We would need to include conditions with browser fallbacks everywhere system API calls happen.
The good thing about Capacitor is that it allows us to do this easily.

Let's make Linkbox truly universal by embracing Capacitor's web native philosophy!
