How do I add a button similar to "Install Twitter" in the Google Chrome address bar? Any document where this functionality is described?
I create an application that interacts with a web page and needs to provide a user with the download link for my application to be installed on the client machine.

The term address bar refers to the text field in a web browser that identifies the user's location on the web and allows them to access different websites. The address bar is known as a location bar, and in Google Chrome, it's called the omnibox.
In the Google Chrome Web Store, click the “Add to Chrome” button to install the extension: You will receive a confirmation dialog box asking you to confirm the extension’s permissions. Click the “Add extension” button to confirm: The extension requires these permissions in order to view and parse the requests generated by the Twitter website tag.
Full screen mode can cause the address bar missing. On Windows, you can press F11 or Fn + F11 to exit full screen mode in Chrome. On Mac computer, you can hover your mouse at the top of screen and click the green circle at the top-left to exit full screen mode in Chrome.
Press F11 if you’re currently using Windows. If you’re on a Mac, allow your mouse to hover on the top-left corner of the screen. Then, when the menu bar appeared, click the green circle. If you can’t locate the menu bar in Google Chrome, check if you are in full-screen mode.
If you want to force Chrome to show the full URL in the address bar, here’s what you’ll need to do: Open a new Google Chrome browser window. Right-click the address bar and select the Always Show Full URLs option. That’s it! You can repeat this trick in Chrome and other Chrome-based browsers, including Microsoft Edge.
This is called Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). Requirements for the installation button in the address bar could be found here.
iOS provides similar technology called Apple App Clip.
