In mobile applications, I guess this is called "deep linking". I want similar on the desktop via Chrome browser. For example, when I click a Zoom meeting link, the browser asks me to open it on the Zoom application installed on my Ubuntu.

I want to create bookmarks that open applications like VS Code etc.

Applications do use xdg-open to open a URL on the preferred browser. I need some way I can do the reverse. Something like triggering a .desktop launcher file from within the Chrome browser. Any way like how Zoom does it.
