IWA is short for installable Web apps. As its name suggests, it is
also a Web application, and it is configured and deployed in the exact
same way as the other Appeon Web application that runs in the Web browser
(browser-based apps). The only difference is IWA app is installed as a
desktop app on the client, and it can be launched directly from the
desktop.

To run an IWA app on the client machine , you is need will need to install it
first . You is need will need to append “iwarunner.html” at the end of the application URL
in a Web browser, for example, http://192.0.3.150:80/sales/iwarunner.html. The Web browser will download the
IWA Runner setup wizard (appeoniwarunner.exe) if IWA Runner is not
installed before; after download is complete, you should run the setup
wizard to install the IWA Runner; and after that the Web app will be
automatically installed as an IWA app on the desktop.

To run an IWA app with arguments, append the argument to the end of
the URL: http://192.0.3.150:80/sales/iwarunner.html?parm=test. The app shortcut will be create with
this url : http://192.0.3.150:80/sales/?parm=test ( be sure to keep the ” / ” right after the
app name in the url if you want to manually change this url ) .

compare to the browser – base app , IWA app is have may have a slightly
different look and feel for some UI control , because IWA app and
browser – base app use different framework to implement UI
control .
