Direct Known Subclasses:
  `Font`

public class CN extends CN1Constants
This is a global context static class designed for static import, this class allows us to write more terse code. However, its chief purpose is simplification by hiding some of the more esoteric methods of these underlying classes and bringing to the front the commonly used important methods. This class includes code from Display, NetworkManager, Log and other important classes

This is not a "static" property, as it only returns true if the app is in a state that allows you to prompt the user. E.g. if you have previously prompted the user and they have declined, then this will return false.

    Best practice is to use `#onCanInstallOnHomescreen(java.lang.Runnable)` to be notified when you are allowed to prompt the user for installation. Then call `#promptInstallOnHomescreen()` inside that method - or sometime after.

    Example

        `onCanInstallOnHomescreen(()->{
             if (canInstallOnHomescreen()) {
                  if (promptInstallOnHomescreen()) {
                      // User accepted installation` else {
                      // user rejected installation
                  }
             }
        });
        }

    A callback fired when you are allowed to prompt the user to install the app on their homescreen. Only relevant in the javascript port.

    ###### Parameters

    - `r`: @param r Runnable that will be run when/if you are permitted to prompt the user to install the app on their homescreen.

  - ### addMessageListener

    public static void addMessageListener(ActionListener<MessageEvent> l)

    Adds a listener to receive messages from the native platform. This is a mechanism to communicate between the app and the native platform. Currently the Javascript port is the only port to use this mechanism.

    In the Javascript port, javascript can send messages to the CN1 app by calling

    `window.dispatchEvent(new CustomEvent('cn1inbox', {detail:'The message', code: SOMEINTEGER`)); }

    ###### Parameters

    - `l`: The listener.

    ###### Since

    7.0

  - ### removeMessageListener

    public static void removeMessageListener(ActionListener<MessageEvent> l)

    Removes a listener from receiving messages from the native platform. This is a mechanism to communicate between the app and the native platform. Currently the Javascript port is the only port to use this mechanism.

    ###### Parameters

    - `l`: The listener.

    ###### Since

    7.0

  - ### postMessage

    public static void postMessage(MessageEvent message)

    Posts a message to the native platform. This is a mechanism to communicate between the app and the native platform. Currently the Javascript port is the only port to use this mechanism.

    In the Javascript port these messages can be received in Javascript by adding an event listener for 'cn1outbox' events to the 'window' object. The message is contained in the event data "detail" key. And the code in the 'code' key.

    ###### Parameters

    - `message`: The message to send to the native platform.

    ###### Since

    7.0

  - ### setTimeout

    public static Timer setTimeout(int timeout, Runnable r)

    Convenience method to schedule a task to run on the EDT after timeoutms.

    ###### Parameters

    - `timeout`: The timeout in milliseconds.

    - `r`: The task to run.

    ###### Returns

    The Timer object that can be used to cancel the task.

    ###### Since

    7.0

  - ### setInterval

    public static Timer setInterval(int timeout, Runnable r)

    Convenience method to schedule a task to run on the EDT after periodms repeating every periodms.

    ###### Parameters

    - `timeout`: The delay and repeat in milliseconds.

    - `r`: The runnable to run on the EDT.

    ###### Returns

    The timer object which can be used to cancel the task.

  - ### getSharedJavascriptContext

    public static BrowserComponent getSharedJavascriptContext()

    Gets a reference to an application-wide shared Javascript context that can be used for running Javascript commands. When running in the Javascript port, this Javascript context will be the same context in which the application itself is running, so it gives you the ability to interact with the browser and DOM directly using the familiar `BrowserComponent` API.

    When running on other platforms, this shared context will be an off-screen browser component.

    Sample code allowing user to execute arbitrary Javascript code inside the shared context:

        Form hi = new Form("Hi World", new BorderLayout());
        TextArea input = new TextArea();
        TextArea output = new TextArea();
        output.setEditable(false);

        Button execute = new Button("Run");
        execute.addActionListener(evt->{
            BrowserComponent bc = CN.getSharedJavascriptContext().ready().get();
            bc.execute("callback.onSuccess(window.eval(${0}))", new Object[]{input.getText()}, res->{
                output.setText(res.toString());
            });
        });
        SplitPane split = new SplitPane(SplitPane.VERTICAL_SPLIT, input, output, "0", "50%", "99%");
        hi.add(CENTER, split);
        hi.add(NORTH, execute);

        hi.show();

    ###### Returns

    A shared BrowserComponent
