PWA: Progressive Web App Support #325

Open simeononsecurity opened 1 year ago

simeononsecurity commented 1 year ago

Request for PWA Support Dear Developers,

I am writing this issue to request support for Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) in the project. PWAs are a fast-growing technology that is changing the way we interact with the web, making it possible to have a seamless experience between web and native apps. Here are a few reasons why PWAs should be supported:

Offline Support - PWAs can work offline, providing a better experience to users with poor or no internet connectivity.

Improved User Experience - PWAs are designed to provide a native app-like experience to users with features like push notifications, home screen icons, and offline functionality.

Increased Engagement - PWAs have been proven to have a higher engagement rate than traditional websites, leading to higher user retention and conversion rates.

Cross-platform compatibility - PWAs can run on any platform, including desktop, mobile, and tablet, making it easier for users to access your site.

I have attached some examples of how I implemented PWA support for my site: https://github.com/simeononsecurity/simeononsecurity.ch/blob/master/static/service-worker.js https://github.com/simeononsecurity/simeononsecurity.ch/blob/master/static/manifest.json https://github.com/simeononsecurity/simeononsecurity.ch/blob/cc46641986313fe787db236c5388d1257b6a5cb5/themes/soshellofriend/layouts/partials/extended_head.html#L36
