Re: Implementation of mult-screen layout on production system

Hey Brent,

I'm excited to hear about Mometic's use of new window management web
platform features for multi-screen devices!
The blog post is great, I would love to also see a video of the new
functionality in action.
If you encounter implementation defects in this space, you can file a
Chromium issue that CCs me with this link
<https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/entry?template=Defect+report+from+user&cc=msw@chromium.org>
.

Thanks!
Mike

Hi Brent,

Thank you on behalf of the whole WG for sharing this exciting story and
details with us.

This type of feedback from real-world users of the Web APIs developed in
this WG is always warmly welcome. Your feedback helps validate the WG is
addressing real user needs with its web capabilities and it also helps
inform our future direction.

We’re planning to have a virtual meeting for the WG during Q1 2023.
Depending on your availability and interest we would be happy to invite you
as a guest to our meeting to present on what you outlined in your email and
perhaps share with us where you’d like us to take the related APIs in the
future.

I will keep you updated as we progress with our meeting planning.

Hello,

I just wanted to share that we have successfully implemented a multi-screen
layout management system as part of our efforts to better utilize our
platform across multiple displays.  To date, I have not seen a web platform
that has the capabilities from a browser which we have and if the
functionality provided was enabled by this working group - kudos!  Let me
share a few details.

Mometic builds a web-based stock market tool to scan and track the stock
market in real-time.  It is built with React and is PWA enabled, but works
in both browser and PWA contexts.

A few features of our multi-screen layout management.


- Detachable components allow users to drag functionality across one or
more screens.

- Ability to save and edit layouts

- Ability to save a layout and if detached components — will remember
display and position of component

- Have 3 different layout settings.  Two provide primary and optional
display layouts.  The 3rd is consistent with our orginal responsive layout.


- Platform remembers chosen layout option on specific device type.  (e.g.
If desktop has chosen Primary layout, then will maintain that layout.
While user may also configure the Optional layout for mobile and platform
will maintain settings accordingly.

- Data sharing and syncronization between windows.  Each window loads as
its own app and needed to create a communication channel for passing
settings and syncing data across main page and child windows.

- Lastly we prompt users to enable Pop-ups and redirects as well as enable
Window management.



Would love to share the functionality with the group if interested.
