Progressive Web App (PWA) Guide

Insilico Terminal can now be installed as a Progressive Web App (PWA), enabling you to access it like a native application directly from your device. This provides a seamless experience with features such as quick access without relying on a browser tab.

What is a Progressive Web App (PWA)?

A PWA is a type of application delivered through the web but with the feel and functionality of a native app. It allows you to:

• Access the app from your desktop or mobile home screen

• Use the app in a standalone window without a browser interface

• Benefit from faster load times and enhanced caching
