Hosted webapps in disconnected networks with the new syntethic apk

more options

Hello, i'm using firefox on android as primary "client" interface for an home automation system. The home automation system has a web based user/admin gui that i permit to "install" as an hosted web app, and both the gui and the manifest.app is on a little embedded device running a custom embedded linux i use to serve the web pages.

Any home has a different LAN, and some of them are also disconnected from internet.

With firefox beta and nightly fennec i can see that webapps are changed, old one won't work anymore, and the new one needs to be built as apk from an external service. I know that theorically i can build my apk in my own local LAN, but i don't have a device with enough resources to do that in any lan, so, no way to do that.

Of course when i try to just install my manifes.webapps, the service at https://controller.apk.firefox.com/ cannot connect to my internal web server, so, no way to make it install my webapp, also, i cannot put a webapp online as some home doesn't have internet connectivity at all.

Is there any way to achieve what i was used to with the "old" webapps way, or i need to build a packaged web app with just a single page that just do a redirect to my local web server?

this is a developer question. this forum is aimed at non-developer questions so people can't really help here.
