First Steps

Your page template (typically fe_page.html5) must support Head Bundle. This means it must output at least $this->meta() in head section. See Head Bundle readme for more information
If you want to use push notifications, add vapid keys to your config (see Setup -> Vapidkeys)
Create an PWA Configuration(Backend -> System -> PWA Configuration)
Add the configuration to a page root (in page settings you find a new section "Progressive Web App", select yes and choose your configuration)
- On saving the page the page manifest and the serviceworker will be generated
To provide an option to register to your push notifications, add the Push Subscription Button content element or the push notification popup frontend module to your page.

Push Notifications

VAPID keys

You need to add your server vapid keys to your config file, typical in your project config.yml. If you haven't already vapid keys, you can generate in the PWA Bundle backend (Contao Backend -> System -> PWA Configuration -> Control -> Authentication)

huh_pwa:
  vapid:
    subject: "mailto:test@example.org"
    publicKey: "BPZACSEB_Efa3_e2XdVRm4M3Suga2WnhNs9THpVixfScWicSiA3ZYQ3zCG4Uez3EnbL3q-O2RomlZtYejva642M"
    privateKey: "W0qtmwq0aB47Swmid0uDZyW945p9b5bgv_WmfsmsRHw"

Usage

Regenerate files

You can regenerate all your manifest and service worker files at once from the Pwa Control (Contao Backend -> System -> PWA Configuration -> Control -> Files -> Rebuild files)

There is also an command available: huh:pwa:build
