<p>Is there any way to think about building a site as a Progressive Web App when using Craft CMS? Any steps / plugins that can help build a site as a PWA to enable features like Add to Homescreen, Offline reading support, push notifications?</p>

I would think that most of these features would be custom files that live alongside your CraftCMS build to enable PWA functionality.

You'd need a manifest.json file and some service worker js files to get it working; the PWA functionality would really be an add-on to the CraftCMS functionality and does not need to be connected, so I don't think you'd need a CraftCMS plugin.

Good luck!
