What is the best PWA you know? One that actually has the same quality as a native app. I want them to be great but have’t seen a good example.

@rickhanlonii you a web guy, what do you say?

https://mobile.twitter.com  is a PWA and written in React Native — Sent from Twitter PWA

People always say twitter but it’s terrible if that’s the best it gets. No animations, pull to refresh is wonky, no swipe to go back gesture. I can easily make a list of 10+ major issues :/

Idk if it’s the best we’ll get but those features are provided mostly for free on mobile platforms so someone would need to put in a good amount of effort to add them to a website I think of PWAs as just mobile websites with an icon, offline mode, and push notifications

Right. I’m super interested to see that underlying plumbing needed actually be built. PWAs have a lot of benefit but if the user experience isn’t at least 95% of native I don’t see them exploding.

Same, especially if the popularity of frameworks that make native mobile development easier and more web-like continue to grow
