Other information

This proposal provides a way for web apps to extend their scope to other web origins. Sites can span multiple sub-domains or TLDs. When installed as a web app, the app may want the content across multiple web origins to be presented as being part of the same app by the user agent.

I have requested a TAG review at w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/875.

The base specification for this proposal is the Web Application Manifest spec.

We have updated the Web App Scope Extensions explainer recently with some changes in the required manifest format.

Appreciate a second read and any additional comments. Thank you.
