Hvad er WEBMANIFEST-filformatet?
En .webmanifest-fil er et Web Application Manifest, et JSON-dokument som en browser læser for at installere og vise en Progressive Web App (PWA). Den indeholder et enkelt JSON-objekt, hvis medlemmer beskriver appen: name, short_name, icons, start_url, scope, display, background_color og theme_color, blandt andre. Når du tilføjer en PWA til en telefons startskærm eller et skrivebord, bestemmer disse værdier app-ikonet, dens titel og hvordan vinduet åbnes.
Formatet er en W3C-standard, først udkastet i 2013 og understøttet i browsere fra Chrome 45 i 2015. En side linker til den i HTML-hovedet:
<link rel="manifest" href="/app.webmanifest">Den registrerede medietype er application/manifest+json. Filendelsen .webmanifest er den, IANA har registreret, selvom mange websteder stadig navngiver filen manifest.json. Begge fungerer, så længe serveren sender en JSON-gyldig indholdstype.
Sikkerhed og tryghed
RISIKO: LOWA .webmanifest file is plain-text JSON with no executable code, so opening it cannot run anything on your machine. The only practical risk is that a manifest can declare protocol_handlers or file_handlers that register a PWA to handle links or file types once the app is installed, which is a browser-mediated permission, not an action of opening the file. Editing an invalid manifest can break PWA installation but poses no security threat.
Formatdetaljer
kort fortalt- Firefox WebExtension manifest - Browser extensions use a manifest file, but it is named manifest.json with a .json extension, not .webmanifest.
- Java JAR/app manifests - Unrelated MANIFEST.MF metadata inside Java archives; different format and purpose.

dyb specifikation| Encoding | UTF-8 text |
| Byte order | Not applicable (text) |
| Container | JSON object with top-level keys called members |
| Compression | None (may be gzip/brotli compressed in transit by the web server) |
| Typical size | Under 5 KB |
| Structure | A single JSON object whose members describe a web application: name, short_name, description, icons (array of image objects with src, sizes, type), start_url, scope, display, orientation, background_color, theme_color, categories, screenshots, shortcuts, share_target, protocol_handlers, and file_handlers. |
| Integrity | None built in; integrity relies on HTTPS transport and same-origin/CORS fetch rules |
| Platforms | Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, ChromeOS |
| Notes | Referenced from a page's HTML head via <link rel="manifest" href="app.webmanifest">. The browser reads it to install a Progressive Web App, set the home-screen icon and name, and control the launch display mode. Servers should return it with the application/manifest+json media type, though browsers also accept application/json. When the manifest is on a different origin than the page scope it must be fetched with CORS. |
