Push API Draft Published
The Web Applications Working Group has published the First Public Working Draft of Push API. This specification defines a “Push API” that provides webapps with scripted access to server-sent application data, for simplicity referred to here as "Push messages" as delivered by "Push services". Push services are a way for application servers to send messages to webapps, whether or not the webapp is active in a browser window. The specific method to be used by a webapp is either selected by the user through selecting a Web Intent Push Service provider, or by the browser. The Push API is defined to promote compatibility with any underlying delivery method. Learn more about the Rich Web Client Activity.
