• Apple confirms it's breaking iPhone web apps in the EU on purpose

I tested just now in firefox with an app from https://appsco.pe and it just...opened a browser tab with the website. So I understand a PWA is just a website but isn't the whole point to have a dedicated window/card for it? - Source: Hacker News / 2 months ago

• Show HN: An app store just for installable web apps

  Not really, since there can be many indexes like this. There's already https://appsco.pe for example. - Source: Hacker News / 7 months ago

• Why Google and Apple act the way they do, working to snuff out the mobile web

  I think that it really depends on what the PWA is trying to do and its purpose. I think the Twitter, Instagram, and Starbucks apps are both good examples of what can be done. Potentially a lot more could be done with PWAs, if there was more push to make them better. https://appsco.pe/. - Source: Hacker News / over 1 year ago

• I got a new Nokia 2780 4G . Is there anyway to use Instagram on it?

  Go to the Appscope website ( http://appsco.pe/) on the KaiOS phone and you will find a list of Progressive Web Apps. Some work better than others. Pin the app to the Apps Menu. I can't get the Instagram working tonight. Might be that my 8110 4G is too old. I should imagine it might work on a newer device especially a KaiOS 3.1 phone. Source: over 1 year ago

  To do virtually the same exact thing with your browser of choice, instead make web-apps by going to the mobile website for Twitter, etc, and selecting "add to home" in settings. There's also AppScope which is basically web-app "store," where you can find all social media optimized as mobile web applications, including Twitter, Instagram, Telegram, etc, plus lots of games, tools, and other random web-apps.

• What Developers Need to Know About Progressive Web Apps

  Right now, there are a handful really well-done PWA “stores” online. In contrast to the classic app stores, these are catalogues rather than system stores. One example in that category is Appscope. Its minimalistic and to-the-point design emphasizes what most PWAs try to achieve. - Source: dev.to / almost 3 years ago

• Attempts to support PWA in Firefox!!!!

  PWAs are just regular web apps which have an "installation" and "deletion" workflows and are have extra bits for deep integrated into the OS like a native app. The point is, regular user woun't be able to distinguish a good PWA from a native app. Here is an "app store" which has only PWAs in it.

• Progressive Web Apps Are Competing with the Apple App Store

  Yup, completely agree with this!! (I was also quoted in the article) One thing I do see having the potential to change things is https://appsco.pe, it's a really nicely designed 'PWA store'. If it (and PWAs) became more mainstream, I can see that being another place that people would go to search your thing. However, it looks like it hasn't been actively developed for a while. I wish they would add a reviews... - Source: Hacker News / about 3 years ago
