Getting started

👋 Hi! Here is how you can add your app to Paquet. Adding a new app is done by adding a spec to apps folder in the GitHub repo.

Requirements:

  • Web app manifest
  • Service worker
  • Name
  • App icons

Preparing your manifest.json

You can use your manifest.json or site.webmanifest to specify the app listing details.

Here are the keys we use when displaying your app listing on Paquet:

  • name
  • author
  • description
  • categories
  • icons
  • screenshots
  • theme_color

You can find more about manifest keys on the manifest documentation

Preparing your index.html (home page)

We also fetch some properties from the index page. Those are:

  • og:image (for the cover)
  • author
  • description

The og:image should be a cover image. Preferably 1024x600.

Extra

When you submit your app, you need specify your app’s features. These features include: mobile optimisation, offline capability and more.

You can also specify an URL to your app’s source code.

Issues

In case your app has some issues, it will be temporarily taken down until the issues have been resolved.
