    6.3 - Web Apps with scope conflicts -

    This section is non-normative.

    - -

    - Because scopes are based on URL matching, it is possible for a developer to create - multiple web applications with the same, overlapping, or nested scopes. Doing so creates - several issues (detailed below) and is thus considered bad practice. -

    -
      -
    • The scopes of the two web apps can be on the same origin. Not - recommended. -
      • -
    • The scope of one web app can be nested inside the scope of the - other. Strongly not recommended. -
      • -
    • The scopes of the two web apps can be the same. Strongly not - recommended. -
      • -
    -

    - Same-origin scopes are not recommended due to origin-based settings - that will affect all apps installed under that origin. Settings like: -

    -
      -
    • Permissions -
      • -
    • Storage and storage quota -
      • -
    • User settings (e.g. font size) -
      • -
    -

    - Further, overlapping, nested, or duplicate scopes can have the following UX and - API problems or inconsistencies among other possible consistencies: -

    -
      -
    • Installation prompting may not work for the nested app if the - outer app is installed. -
      • -
    • User-agent UX around launching an app for a browsing context may - be inconsistent or not appear. -
      • -
    • Badging API calls will not be able to consistently update the - correct web app badge. -
      • -
    • Notifications may have incorrect attribution or not appear. -
      • -
    • Future APIs may not work at all in this configuration. -
