Web applications for Windows are reaching a new level and becoming more and more similar to desktop options.

Microsoft has announced a new Windows Controls Overlay feature that will allow Windows web app developers to better

configure your software.

What is known

The new feature will allow developers to customizeстроку заголовка своих программ. Раньше такая возможность была недоступна, поскольку это могло привести к разным рода странностям. Веб-программы теперь имеют доступ ко «всей поверхности» окна программы, кроме кнопок в правом верхнем углу.

“Recently, thanks to new web capabilities inChromium browser engine and UX changes in Microsoft Edge and Windows, installed web programs truly look and feel like full-fledged desktop solutions.” – Patrick Brosset, Senior Program Manager. “While native programs could display useful content anywhere in the program window, including the title bar (for example, you can place a tool menu there, deputy author), web application developers were forced to work only with the internal program window. We're excited to announce a new PWA feature that fills this gap and helps further blur the line between software and the website."
