One manifest,
every platform.
The web app manifest is the foundation of every installable PWA — it tells browsers your app's name, icons, colors, and behavior. pageflare generates and serves your manifest.json automatically from the dashboard. No hand-edited JSON, no deploy cycle, no drift between environments.
Every field,
correctly set.
Name & Short Name
Set your full app name and the shorter version shown under your home screen icon. pageflare validates length limits per platform so you don't get truncated labels on Android or iOS.
Icons
Upload one source image and pageflare generates all required icon sizes — 48×48 through 512×512 — including maskable variants for Android adaptive icons. Served from the edge, cached aggressively.
Display Mode
Choose standalone, fullscreen, minimal-ui, or browser. Standalone is the default — it hides the browser chrome and makes your app feel truly native on every platform.
Theme & Background Color
Theme color sets the browser toolbar and Android task switcher tint. Background color controls the splash screen before your CSS loads. Both are set from the dashboard with a color picker.
Shortcuts
Add up to four app shortcuts that appear when users long-press your icon on Android or right-click on desktop. Deep-link directly into features like 'New Post', 'Open Camera', or 'My Account'.
Configure once.
Deploy everywhere.
Configure in dashboard
Set your app name, upload icons, choose display mode, and pick your theme colors. pageflare validates every field against the Web App Manifest spec and flags anything that would break an install prompt.
Edge generates JSON
pageflare generates a fully-valid manifest.json and serves it from Cloudflare's edge network — with the correct Content-Type, CORS headers, and cache directives that browsers require.
Browser reads it
Your manifest is automatically linked in your page's <head>. Browsers pick it up, validate it, and unlock install prompts — on Chrome, Safari, Edge, and every Chromium-based browser.
