  Description     : Anstall websites as PWA in firefox - native part

 Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are web apps that use web APIs and features along
 with progressive enhancement strategy to bring a native app-like user
 experience to cross-platform web applications. Although Firefox supports many
 of Progressive Web App APIs, it does not support functionality to install them
 as a standalone system app with an app-like experience.

 This project creates a custom modified Firefox runtime to allow websites to be
 installed as standalone apps and provides a console tool and browser extension
 to install, manage and use them.

 It would be nice to have the native parts in Debian as that massively
 eases installation for users.

 Having the actual firefox extension packaged later on would certainy be
 nice too but we can have a different issue for that then.
