  • bubblewrap

    Bubblewrap is a Command Line Interface (CLI) that helps developers to create a Project for an Android application that launches an existing Progressive Web App (PWAs) using a Trusted Web Activity. (by GoogleChromeLabs)

  • I think it's not correct to conflate the App Store and the Play Store like this. Apple is very hostile to PWAs in the App Store, whereas Google wrote a tool to easily package your PWA for the Play Store https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/bubblewrap

    So for me, I publish to the Play Store to get some free users who find my app that way. App Store, not worth the headache of trying to skirt Apple's rules.

    Ideally I think app stores should allow listing PWAs directly, rather than banning them (like Apple) or forcing them to use a wrapper (like Google). Whatever complaints people have about that (app can change without review, etc) also apply to the current situation in the Play Store. Once your wrapper PWA is accepted, you can change the website however you want. So what's the point of the wrapper?
