AppStudio 7.4 adds support for making Progressive Web Apps (PWAs). The intent of Progressive Web Apps is to combine the flexibility of the web with the experience of a native application.

PWAs offer a number of benefits:
  • An improved method of storing apps so they can run online
  • Android automatically displays "Add to Home Screen" prompt
  • Can be saved as desktop apps on Windows and MacOS (via Chrome)
  • Does not rely on deprecated Application Cache (for fun, read this: Application Cache is a Douchbag)
