Can you add the ability to upload two files a manifest.json file and a serviceworkers.js file to the location where the website is hosted. (these files are extremely small). Once we can upload these 2 files, we can add a couple of javescript lines to the header of each page, and we can start taking advantage of the Progressive Web Apps (PWA's). When a website is PWA compliant, we can start using local cache so websites load even when there is no internet. In Africa everybody access the internet through a phone, but a signal is not always available, when we use local cache they can still see the website without internet connection (of course they need to visit the website before when there is internet)
Also when the website is PWA compliant, it can act like a native app on your cellphone.I exported a website from webflow, added two files Manifest.json and serviceworker.js and added 10 lines of code in the header of each page, and the website became WPS compliant. No other change are needed.

This strikes me as a low effort, high-reward feature to implement, given the nearly 1,000 (as of this writing) votes.

This is pretty much a necro post at this point, but here it goes: Webflow is the only site builder I use. I always built all of my sites and applications from scratch. Most (not all) are Mongo Express React Node stack because of the flexibility and control and, most importantly, the ability to build for the web and have a platform-agnostic app on a phone or desktop. I've built a few PWAs by hand, so I know it can be a pain, but I would love to see this feature. My clients would love it, and would likely be willing to pay for it.

This would be awesome since I love using Webflow to design and build web-apps. the only thing is that turning a webflow project into a pwa is such a hassle now. You have to either use progressier, webviewgold or any other solution that i might not be aware of.

Finally!
You can transfer you site to GitHub automated, where you can setup custom scripts OR you can use the intelligent prefetching feature which allows you to have a website available offline without any service worker!

Come on let's make root directory access happen for this! Its 2021 and soon 2022! :-)

They should just add the option to access the root directory to make us create a service worker!

This seems a MUST have in 2021. Let's do it !

"Reviewed" !!!
Please let's make this happen! So many clients here in Australia are looking into PWAs at the moment and having this option will provide so much value to me as a freelancer and them as a business.

So this wishlist item "has been reviewed"! What now?
When can I expect to publish PWAs!???
Its 2021 - lets do this

This is a nice and powerful feature to add...!!!

I understand that PWA's may not be part of your roadmap nor the company goal, but a simple workaround would be allowing root-domain-level file uploads.

Please add this feature ... in the mean time can anyone guide me what is the alternative to this, if you wanna stay with Webflow
