So if they don’t have dock than what should they use? A taskbar with a start menu?
Put all the apps of the home screen in app library?
Got a tip for us?

Does the store go down if there is nothing available to buy? That is, just announcements of future changes, downloads and software updates, etc.
I have no idea, but that isn't really the point. Desktop Safari has had web notification support since v6.
If you want to judge all browser features by whether a single website has failed to implement them properly, you'll pretty soon have a list of browsers that you have to declare are all completely featureless.
Apple is good at their poker game.....likely the store will go down just before the keynote.
I always thought that it was down by 3a Pacific Time the morning of the keynote. We're pretty close to that point.
I just hope they didn't take those who said they'd pay $200 extra to not have the Touch Bar seriously 🤣Remember, though, that the “replacement for the trash can Mac” crew did it, too! To the tune one one $6,000 system
I don't know for sure, but I'd guess that's because the forum software may have adopted the "Push" API and dropped support for the "Web Notifications" API.
For those playing at home, the Push API is currently considered to be "Initial definition" with a status of "Working Draft", and every aspect of the API is considered "Experimental".
If this demo works for you, then Web Notifications are working. That doesn't really help much when the forum software adopts an experimental API, but let's at least be clear what we're talking about here.
I agree - my point was they don't focus on product releases as much as this event, at least not for a while by my recollection. I desperately want the new MBPs to be released though!
Let me correct that for you. "Out of 2 hours, Apple will spend 1.75 hours on stuff that no adults cares about."
Timmy Cook will talk about Apple's Incredible, Best Ever, Stunning, Fantastic, Remarkable, Best Ever, Amazing new products that in reality are just small improvement from last year with bugs and glitches that no one wants to talk about.
Even if Apple announces new hardware, it is very unlikely that they will be avaliable for purchase today. At BEST, they would go on sale this Friday. More likely, anything new, like new MBPs, will go on sale in a few weeks.
I’m actually thinking its gonna be a lot more painful than $200. Hope I’m wrong, though.
Oh, yeah, of course... haha... I was jumping ahead—just iOS, not new phones, at WWDC...
Any new hardware would likely be the MacBook pro 16 inch or the iMac 27 inch.
I can’t see a new MacBook Air as it not been out more than 200 days yet or the MacBook pro 13 inch.
It does not make sense having widgets on the iPhone but not the iPad. It is not like it going to take apple months to program for it in iPadOS.
Apple could easy add that feature.
They just did. I’m happy for people that use widgets on iPad, but I personally don’t find it useful on iPad (somewhat useful on iPhone that said)
But I got App Library too yayy
Not sure what you’re on about.
I’m not talking about a single website. I’m talking about the missing functionality that causes websites like this and plenty of others to not work. It has nothing to do with the website itself.
And that definitely was the point because, well, it was my point that you decided to reply to. So I guess you missed my point.
There are two ways a website can send a notification to a user's browser.
One is the Web Notifications API, which is stable, and has been supported in Safari since v6. The forum software macrumors uses, used to use this API to provide notifications to users.
The other is the Push API, which is a draft standard, and considered experimental. I presume this is what the forum software uses now.
If a software developer or web developer decides to ship software that uses draft, experimental APIs, don't be surprised when not every client device is going to support it, or even support it in the same manner.
No, It should be part of iOS just like it is in TVOS and OSX. You can do it with music and any audio; but not with video.
