Claims what PWA can actually do now and what still fails: a web app becomes a PWA by adding manifest.json and a service worker, the demo collection shows around 38 demos including offline pages, push notifications (on iOS only for installed apps), biometric login, and fast file access via the origin private file system. It demonstrates shipping background fetch and background sync, view transitions and enhanced install UI on Chromium, and calls out the concrete limitation: iOS/WebKit blocks key platform features despite DMA legal pressure.
