Reply to Safari web extension - background script - sessionStorage
@nbe I never got notified you replied. I am able to set, get and remove session and local storage from my background page/script without issue. I am not using the safari converter however, so perhaps it's an issue with that or how you are going about setting/getting. That being said the person who replied has good advice, I'd do what he says.

Reply to Opening native app from a web extension
I think how you will open the containing app depends on your implementation and from where and how you are trying to do so. Using a custom URL scheme is the way I do it. I can open my containing app from a popup, content script, bundled html page or background by calling the window.open method like so: window.open("customURLscheme");

Reply to Safari App Extension API vs WebExtensions
I am still hoping for clarification here. To be clear, I am curious if it is possible to accomplish similar results as browser.contextMenus.create({...}), when not using web extensions, but rather the Safari App Extension swift api? Further, if the api doesn't exist for those methods, is it somehow possible to use the web extension api alongside the swift api?
