Check the Browser compatibility table carefully before using this in production.

The prompt()
method of the BeforeInstallPromptEvent
interface allows a developer to show the install prompt at a time of their own choosing. Typically this will be called in the event handler for the app's custom install UI.
This method must be called in the event handler for a user action (such as a button click) and may only be called once on a given BeforeInstallPromptEvent
instance.
