Why can’t everything just be a progressive web app

• kylecazar 1y ago
  Because Google/Apple don't want us to circumvent their respective app stores, so they make certain features/API's a PITA (if not impossible) to use unless you are building natively.

    Meanwhile I considered PWAs necessary evil on iOS. I would gladly use native tools but paying developer subscription just to install private/personal apps is no-go.

  Most people don't even know they exist (I do not count webapps in a native shell as PWA). that's the biggest issue with PWA in my experience. People aren't using them.

  Apple and Google couldn’t take 15-30% that way

  Because hardware capabilities exist outside the realm of web technologies.
