Store VPW

Store VPW is the Virtual Private Workspace path for Store: a platform-scoped Storefront window owned by your HERE Core UI platform lifecycle, following the same per-platform pattern as Dock 3.

API unchanged

Store VPW uses the same integrator contract as legacy Store. You still implement StorefrontProvider and call register / deregister / show / hide. Only the package and namespace change.

For provider implementation details (getApps, landing page, navigation, and so on), see Store overview.

What is different from legacy Store

	Legacy Store	Store VPW
Package	@openfin/workspace	@openfin/workspace-platform
Namespace	Storefront	StorefrontVpw
Window model	Shared / standalone CDN-hosted Store zone	Per-platform child window hosted with the platform
Provider contract	StorefrontProvider	Same StorefrontProvider
Lifecycle methods	register, deregister, show, hide	Same methods

Legacy Store on @openfin/workspace continues to work. Store VPW is additive for platforms that want platform-owned Store.

Example

import { StorefrontVpw, type StorefrontProvider } from "@openfin/workspace-platform";

const myStorefrontProvider: StorefrontProvider = {
  id: "PROVIDER_ID",
  title: "PROVIDER_PLATFORM_TITLE",
  icon: "PROVIDER_ICON",
  getApps: async () => [],
  getNavigation: async () => [],
  getLandingPage: async () => undefined,
  getFooter: async () => ({ logo: { src: "" } }),
  launchApp: async () => undefined,
};

await StorefrontVpw.register(myStorefrontProvider);
await StorefrontVpw.show();
