Install PWA

A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a website that behaves like a mobile or desktop app. Unlike traditional apps, you don’t need to download it from an app store. Instead, you can install it directly from your web browser, making it faster and easier to access.

Once installed, a PWA appears on your home screen or desktop, just like any other app. It can work offline, load quickly, and even send notifications (if supported). This makes it a great alternative to regular apps, especially for lightweight or frequently visited websites.
