Description
If a user visits App Store using the Safari Web browser and then attempts to install an App, nothing happens.
Safari does not allow javascript code that was loaded via https to connect to other web sites via http unless a new window is opened. In this case, the "other web site" is IGB itself running on the localhost.
For this task, determine if users can install apps into IGB using app store and safari.
If this cannot be done, then implement some kind of warning or failsafe to alert the user to the fact that they cannot use the Safari browser to install an App from App Store.
Before beginning work, please review the linked issue for detailed descriptions of the problem.
Also, consult with Karthik Raveendran on how BioViz Connect has handled this issue from both a technical and user interface perspective.
