      Well you rarely ever see them done right. This is a wonderful example of what can be accomplished with a PWA if more developers were more interested that format.

        Developers are. But people think a “native” electron app is better.

        Also a closed source native app can do tracking a pwa has a hard time doing.

        Most applications people use TODAY are a web view with some (or none) extra stuff running in the back anyway. If PWAs worked in safari (as they should) almost no top 100 app would be outside of the capabilities of the web as a platform. Not even offline usage. Not even games.
