Progressive Web App: unexpected results

Need further guidance to implement the web app functionality as described here: https://dev.opera.com/blog/web-app-install-banners/
I have used the manifest generator and validated its functionality.
When I browse to my site: https://mysite.com the install banner does not appear. Probably because I do not have a 'service worker'. Need guidance on this.
Second, when I click the plus sign I can add the app to the home screen, but the home screen never shows the icon, nor is it full screen. Still have the address bar and the browser controls at the bottom.
Here is the manifest:
{
"lang": "en",
"background_color": "#ffffff",
"name": "go BillThis - mobile business management",
"short_name": "go BillThis",
"display": "fullscreen",
"icons": [
{
"src": "/Images/bt144.png",
"sizes": "144x144",
"type": "image/png"
}
]
} -

You need a Service Worker for the banner to appear. Validate your site with the lighthouse extension to see what is missing: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/lighthouse/blipmdconlkpinefehnmjammfjpmpbjk
