Abstract
Techniques for automatically ingesting progressive web apps (PWAs) into an application store of an operating system (OS) are provided. According to one set of embodiments, a computer system can receive a list of PWAs identified via crawling one or more websites. For at least one PWA in the list, the computer system can convert the PWA into a native application that is native to the OS of the application store. The computer system can then make the native application available through the application store for discovery by a user and for installation on a client device of the user.
