Web news

Web Apps - From Safari - File - Add to Dock adds a Website to the Bar on macOS. It is similar to the installation of Progressive Web Apps(PWA) on Chrome but simpler and without developer needing to do anything. It would be great from Google Chrome to follow this.

This is great for Web developers because their websites/web apps will be easier to launch and reduce the friction of going into the browser and typing a URL. 

One-click solutions are GREAT!

Chrome had something similar for a while called PWA Installation but it requires configuration from developers, has some requirements and is not supported by Safari.

Here are details for the installation of PWA: https://web.dev/install-criteria/

I think the future is the Apple Way!
