Potentially useful progressive web apps

Method for distinguishing PWAs from normal websites: adding them to iOS homescreen and seeing which open as “their own apps” or having Chromium suggest “installing” them without manually “installing” them.

Proper identification: view-source (CTRL - U) and CTRL - F for manifest e.g. <link rel="manifest" href="/manifest.webmanifest"> in <head>.

It looks like about:apps on Edge (or all Chromiums?) has a Show applications menu on toolbar button which then when pressed on a tab has more details for PWAs. “App whatever is available” with logo and “Publisher:” fields.

TODO: Some of these may be miscategorized while not fullfilling the criteria of PWA.

Not PWAs but still possibly useful for homescreens

Continuing the previous method, these open in Safari.
