Why Microsoft and Google love progressive web apps | Computerworld
This post discusses Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) and why companies like Microsoft and Google are embracing them. While PWAs offer instant access to content and cross-device compatibility, a key concern is their isolated nature, making it difficult for them to share data and resources. This contradicts the core principles of the web, which should be linkable and interoperable. The increasing isolation of PWAs, along with the broken functionalities of basic web operations like copy/paste and drag/drop, contributes to the creation of unintended data silos on the modern web.
