<div>
And...<br />
<br />
Good chance the entire Manifest system will eventually be retired, as HTTP/2 solves most of the problems the Manifest system was designed to solve.

<div>
What would the description value be for a manifest script?
</div>


<div>
This can be anything...<br />
You can see with the dev and decide a way to describe it so you can check for that in the code...
</div>


<div>
Generally the <b>Description</b> field will contain a simple description.<br />
<br />
Pre HTTP/2, when Manifests were in general use, many people also embedded App name + version + timestamp (when App code as last pulled) to provide context for the listed files.

How do I determine if a script is a manifest script? &nbsp;I need to list them all for a specific web app. I can obviously filter &quot;.json&quot; files &nbsp;but how will I know if it is a manifest script?<br />

How to Detect Manifest Scripts?

Web development includes all aspects of presenting content on intranets and the Internet, including delivery development, protocols, languages and standards, server software, browser clients, databases and multimedia generation.

Web Development

JavaScript is a dynamic, object-based language commonly used for client-side scripting in web browsers. Recently, server side JavaScript frameworks have also emerged. JavaScript runs on nearly every operating system and  in almost every mainstream web browser.

JavaScript

JavaScript Object Notation, or JSON, is human-readable text used when transmitting data objects consisting of attribute:value pairs between a server and a web application as an alternative to XML. JSON, while it is originally derived from JavaScript, is a language-independent data format. Code for parsing and generating JSON data is available in many programming languages.
