Hi @feliixx, a PWA is a progressive web app.

But what is that exactly? Well if you visit youtube in a Chrome/Chromium based Browser, you can install a browser based application of youtube onto your system to have it in your programs folder or menu bar. Think of it as a quick starting point of that website, without having to open a browser first. There should be an icon in the top right corner of the URL bar.

How does that work? With the help of a service worker file, you can tell the browser to store certain information about the website/app and make it stand alone on a device.

Take a look here, Fireship explains in the most awesome way. Or scroll around here 😊️
