@HyperPress sure, just resent the invitation. You can also accept it at https://github.com/HTTPArchive. Thanks!

@mikegeyser what you're asking about would need to come from a field dataset like the Chrome UX Report, which doesn't include installs/PWA stats. To my knowledge I'm not aware of another dataset that includes those metrics. HTTP Archive data could tell us how many sites are PWA-capable, but not necessarily the user experience of installing them.

Note that Chrome/Blink requires an app to have a PNG image in the manifest of at least 144px in size. Only then it can be installed. So to be installable the manifest must contain at least the text 144x144 and image/png. Official criteria talk about 192 and 512px but they either don't check this or accept SVG too.

Anyway I think it would be interesting to know what types of icons and what sizes are found in manifests.

Done. Thanks again. I'll dig into the rest tomorrow. Looking forward to collaboration ahead.

Hi!

A quick question. Is it possible from the data set to get an idea of number (or %) of installs? (Sorry, I genuinely don't know.)

If we can, then wouldn't it be interesting to see what form factors (mobile/desktop/etc) PWAs were being installed in? Especially with the recent drive for PWA adoption on desktop.

(Ok, so technically two questions.)

I'll defer to @tomayac in case he has any opinions otherwise, but both that list of metrics and the suggested peer reviewer (thanks @HyperPress!) seem good to me.

[logicalphase]

Thanks all. Good to go here.

[tomayac]

Sounds all good to me.

[rviscomi]

Thanks @Eccenux that's useful info to know. Agreed that icon sizes would be interesting to include. I'll defer to the authors to add it.

@tomayac @jeffposnick I know you've both done some HA analysis in the past. Would you be interested in writing the queries for this chapter? Also, can you think of 1 or 2 other people who might be good peer reviewers for this subject?

@HyperPress I've sent you an invite to join the @HTTPArchive/reviewers team. You can visit https://github.com/HTTPArchive to accept.

@tomayac @jeffposnick @HyperPress we're hoping to finalize the metrics for each chapter today. If everyone is happy with the list of metrics in #13 (comment) could you tick the checkbox and close this issue? I'd also recommend finding at least one more peer reviewer if possible.

@HyperPress also, please accept your invitation to join the reviewers team.

[logicalphase]

I don't remember seeing an invite. Can you direct me to the correct location, or resend it to me? Thanks very much.

I've reached out to peers over in @Polymer Lit General Channel to see if we can add another reviewer. But I believe metrics look good for moving ahead, and for closing the issue for now. We can adjust if need be.
