Is there a way to publish an app on publishing PWA on app stores
google play and ios itunes. Without creating a buggy with cordova which creates a tons of issues to maintain.
Yes there is way to publish your PWAs to Android AppStore.
TWAs
Trusted Web Activities are a new way to integrate your web-app content such as your PWA with your Android app using a protocol based on Custom Tabs.
TWAs uses the Digital Asset Links protocol and API enable an app or website to make public, verifiable statements about other apps or websites. For example, a website can declare that it is associated with a specific Android app, or it can declare that it wants to share user credentials with another website.
Checkout the following link for complete guide to launch PWA to Appstore by Google Developers forum and tutorial guide on medium by Maximiliano Firtman here
Try the documentation Package Your Cordova App for Publishing to an App Store.
Before you can build your application for deployment to any device
through a public app store, you must first configure Visual Studio
with the information it needs to complete the process of packaging and
signing the application for deployment through an app store.
I've just started investigating this myself, have you tried PWA builder? https://www.pwabuilder.com?
It can generate packages for Windows, Android and iOS.

The last two weeks I've been been writing a chrome app in order to update a microcontroller using the chrome.serial API. Now beeing almost ready with the main functionality and trying to publish the application the web store says "The app runs only on Chrome OS".
I'm afraid during development I missed the hint that chrome apps will no longer be supported. Unfortunately I can't easily port it to an extension or progressive web app since the app depends on the chrome.serial.* API
Does somebody know how to publish the app for Windows/Mac/Linux anyhow?
Or maybe how to port to a native app using the chrome.serial api?
Thanks
You can continue using the same Chrome App codebase with NW.js, but you will need to distribute to those platforms another way.

I have an IOS app which I need to integrate with AEM. Can anyone guide me, how to do it.All I can see with adobe documents is to use phonegap and build app using it.
There are 3 things you can do:
Build a native app the queries AEM server and gets content as needed. In this case you might want to expose certain rest services for your app to consume.
Build app using the AEM mobile library or phone gap - for this you will have to create an new mobile app in AEM that uses angular JS and phonegap enterprise to build your app. In this case AEM allows you to manage the content independently
https://github.com/Adobe-Marketing-Cloud-Apps/aem-phonegap-starter-kit - this is a good starting point for it. Checkout the code and run the maven command. It will build a phonegap app for you that you can build by configuring PGE in the build configurations
You can use AEMMobile. Primarily targeted towards creating independent content like magazines and catalogues for your site. AEMMobile is a fresh take at Adobe's Digital Publishing Suite. Here it allows you to create a website without having to write any code. Everything happens on the AEMMobile portal
I have trouble finding information about how to develop a Google (Marketplace) Chrome Web Store Web App.
I want to develop a simple "list info about all users in the domain, and let them add info about themselves through some web interface"-web-app.
And eventually i want to publish it in the Marketplace/Chrome Web Store.
How and where are those web apps hosted when published? How do i develop and test it before, do i use the App Engine simulator for that?
I want to be able to install the app in our domain in such a way that noone else has to "install" it.
You should start here: https://developer.chrome.com/home/platform-pillar
About the App store: https://developer.chrome.com/webstore
I think this is the jumping off point you want.
I am building a hosted mobile application so I can write once and deploy to many mobile platforms. My plan is to write a native application with a single screen that is a browser that navigates to my hosted application. Of course this is so our application is in the App Store, Android Market, etc.
Is it possible to use the PhoneGap JavaScript so my hosted applications can use local APIs? For example, I would like to be able to upload pictures taken from the camera.
Short answer: no.
More information: PhoneGap: It's possible to use only the phonegap.js and it's functions only in a Website (doesn't want an App only a Webpage)?
Short answer
No. You need to add pctures upload logic in each framework
In addition to what has been answer it will also depend on your application store offering. If you're intending to offer the app in the iPhone App Store, these kind of apps aren't permitted. In the guidelines it states that apps that basically launch a browser or UIWebView will be rejected.
Additionally, you could always create the app as a "home screen" app, that runs without the chrome, etc on the iPhone. Hope this helps.
i am asked about custom app stores a lot by clients. Is it feasible to maintain a custom appstore for a specific enterprise where all the mobile device apps are available ? and can be deployed OTA ? any framework ? does afaria do that ?
if you are talking about apple products, their license strictly forbids that. you can install android apps from any link on the web and there are many alternate appstores for droid devices. you could write a simple droid app that downloads install files. blackberry also does not need central approval from RIM to publish and download an app.
