At this URL it says "The recommended way to install Epiphany is via Flatpak." https://github.com/GNOME/epiphanyDefinitely not the recommended way if you want web apps. Use the package from your distro or build it yourself from sources.Using the distro package is smart, but it pushes users back to the command line because GNOME Software doesn't have support for Epiphany web apps.
Not really. You can open Epiphany, open the menu, and choose the “Open Application Manager” option there. That will open a page with a list of web applications and buttons to delete them—no command line involved. To create a web application, use “Install Site as Web Application…“ from the menu.
[…] This means there are no icons viewable via GNOME Software, the app doesn't show up at all and you cannot manage it. It makes Epiphany web apps limited to something that is created on one user's machine and not really useful as something you distribute.
Which, coincidentally, has always been the intention: allowing users to create their own web applications ;-) Cheers, —Adrián
