PWA - The hidden stories about the future of the web
summary
Progressive Web Apps are presented as practical, web-first applications that deliver real benefits through service worker caching (mainly improving subsequent load times), the web app manifest plus install flow, and Trusted Web Activity for Play Store distribution. The talk highlights concrete platform APIs now available—WebAuthn for biometric login, Contacts/SMS, Web Bluetooth and Web USB—and gives a case study claiming switching Twitter to a web app saves about 80 MB, arguing that banking apps can largely be implemented on the web with measurable trade-offs.
