How does a Progressive Web App handle user permissions?
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) handle user permissions through a combination of several principles and technologies. PWAs ask for permissions as needed, similar to native mobile apps, but without the hassle of app store approvals. They use a web manifest file to declare the application’s name, icons, and required permissions. PWAs also utilize the Permissions API and Service Workers to manage and request access to device features and resources, such as camera, microphone, and location. Users have control over the granted permissions and can manage them through the browser settings. Overall, PWAs balance user privacy and convenience by providing a seamless permission handling experience.
