Would you like to be able to control when a #PWA is updated on your device?
It would be useful for example to prevent consuming too much data in roaming, like I often do with native apps.
Weigh in! https://github.com/MicrosoftEdge/MSEdgeExplainers/issues/217
With push notifications in mobile Safari, the arguments for making proprietary apps get weaker. That’s good.
How do you test a service worker, anyway?
if you're writing a service worker from scratch, if you're using one of Workbox's more exotic plugins or custom strategies, or if your service worker's behavior is particularly important to your overall user experience, developing a test suite dedicated to your service worker can give you an important peace of mind.
This is a compatibility list of supported features on Safari on iOS and iPadOS vs. what's available in the most used PWA browser in current market share for similar mobile devices: Google Chrome on Android.
Looks like (someone at) Apple started working on the Push API for webkit! 😲

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. 🤞
I HATE that PWA installed on macOS are so tied to the browser app launch and shut down!
