## How to install PWA

To install the code-server PWA, follow these steps:

1. Open code-server in Safari
2. Click the Share icon
3. Click "Add to Home Screen"

Now when you open code-server from the home screen, you will be using the PWA.
The advantages of this are more screen real estate and access to top-level keyboard shortcuts because it's running like an app.
An example shortcut is the `cmd+w` to close an active file in the workbench. You can add this to your `keybindings.json` by doing the following:

1. Open up code-serer
2. `Command Palette > Open Keyboard Shortcuts (JSON)`
3. Add the following to your `keybindings.json`

```json
{
"key": "cmd+w",
"command": "workbench.action.closeActiveEditor"
}
```

Test out command by hitting `cmd+w` to close an active file
