📄️ Detect Here Core™ support from a web browser
Many apps are written specifically to run in the Here Core Runtime. When a user loads your site in their web browser you have always had the option of presenting them with a fins link to launch your application. What you haven't had is the ability to detect whether you should present them with a fins link or an installer if they do not have Here Core on their machine.
📄️ TypeScript types with Here Core Container APIs
Here™ publishes TypeScript types for its Here Core Container APIs in a separate npm package. You can import these types in order to use them from TypeScript code when using Here Core Container APIs.
📄️ Include licensed media codecs
Starting in Here Core Runtime v38 with Here Core RVM 15, you can add support for licensed media codecs such as H.264 or AAC to your platform. It is up to you to obtain the appropriate licenses for the codecs you require.
📄️ Microsoft Single Sign On extension support
Starting in version 38.126.83.74, Here Core supports the Microsoft Single Sign On extension for Chrome.
📄️ Graceful system shutdown on Windows
Starting in Here Core Runtime version 31 and RVM version 10, Here Core notifies your application and platform that the Microsoft Windows operating system is shutting down. This allows your program to save state and perform other clean-up tasks, and ensures your log files are closed properly during system shutdown.
📄️ Add a jump list to a Windows taskbar icon
The Here Core API enables a Here™ platform to use the capability provided by Windows and Electron to define a jump list on the platform's application icon in the system taskbar. A jump list is a menu that appears when the user right-clicks the taskbar icon, providing quick access to functions such as opening commonly-used files or other actions you choose to create.
