Yeah it seems weird to have the main app URI be in the “links” section but not the manifest. My inclination is they all go in links, you’ve setup names/categories for the main ones and that should be fine.

Btw really like the lexicon generator! Very nicely done, and you can still easily slot in webmanifest if people use that to help set their record.

but individual apps can use any link really to get info on the site :slight_smile:

Quick PR update: I pushed another revision based on the latest GitHub, Discourse, and Bluesky feedback.

Main changes:

  • moved Web App Manifest back into links, using a dedicated linkRoleWebManifest
  • replaced ambiguous entry.locale with entry.langs, meaning “language of this listing text”
  • added platforms as token-backed values instead of relying on tags
  • added lexicons.produces / lexicons.consumes for interoperability discovery
  • added accountIndicators so apps can declare records that suggest an account probably uses the app
  • removed purposeOther; if no image purpose fits, publishers can omit purpose

I kept tags focused on freeform discovery/category labels, and left license/self-hosting metadata for a possible follow-up after v1 lands.

Hello @ngerakines.me I’ve made a few changes that did not trigger additional reactions. Would you mind having a final look and if all looks good, merge it whenever convenient?

I think we would all love to ship this. Anything I can do to speed up the process ? @ngerakines.me @bmann.ca :folded_hands:
