PWA Web Share Target on Android: The Absolute URL Fix

I'm Martin, a software developer based in Örebro, Sweden.
I have over 20 years of professional experience, from embedded C to modern web apps. Outside of work, I spend a lot of my free time on personal projects where I can explore new technologies without constraints.
I also like to build fun projects with electronics, using Raspberry Pis, Arduinos, and other microcontrollers.
Lately I've been exploring 3D, learning Blender and Three.js. It's a new creative outlet that bridges art and code.
When I'm not at the keyboard, you'll find me on the golf course, gaming, sampling craft beer, or at the gym.
