KaiOS SDK QuickStart Guide

Installation

You can install KaiOS in two ways:

  • Copy clevertap.js/clevertap.min.js directly into your FireFox app js directory and load in a script tag in your index.html:
<script type="text/javascript" src="js/libs/clevertap.js" defer></script>
  • Install via npm npm install clevertap-fxos --save and require/import the module:
var clevertap = require('clevertap-fxos');

Generate VAPID keys

To get started, you must generate VAPID keys using one of the following methods:

  • Using npm package name web-push (recommended).
  • You can also use VAPID keys generated for Chrome web push in a Firebase Cloud Messaging (FCM) account. For more information, refer to VAPID Protocol.
