Your Site—Any Site—Should be a PWA

https://www.aaron-gustafson.com/notebook/your-site-should-be-a-pwa/

PWAs don’t require you use a particular JavaScript framework or any JavaScript framework at all. You don’t need to be building a Single Page App either. In fact, it will probably be easier if you’re not. If you work on a website, there’s a really good chance your site could benefit from the technologies and approaches aggregated under the PWA umbrella.

   Looks like (someone at) Apple started working on the Push API for webkit! 😲

   https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=231008

   Let's hope we'll get this in iOS soon, as it's one of the main motivations for some clients to continue to go native instead of PWA. 🤞
