Nexjt.s frontend doesn't have PWA setup but still chrome gives option for PWA magically


I have my nextjs dashboard setup without any configs for PWA but google browser gives option for PWA.

Upon installation, the PWA seems to be magically working as well. I am confused, is this a new google chrome update to automatically do this without any configs from the application?

I have not done anything to setup PWA.

Here is the PWA App in the task Bar

Here is the service worker tab section (empty)

Solution

    Developers don't have to setup service workers anymore since PWA is supported for most applications by chrome from now on.

    You can install a web app as an app in Google Chrome on your computer or Android device:
