PWAs have evolved to the point that it's becoming increasingly difficult to discern between them and natively installed executables.
For companies looking for the most secure method to deliver web apps, the IWA could be the future of app delivery. The fact that Google and Microsoft are working together tells me that Isolated Web Apps could, eventually, become and standard for Chromium-based browsers. This new type of web app is still in its infancy and I have no idea if or when we may see IWAs out in the wild. I am not going to sit here and pretend that I have any grasp on how the new IWA is going to work but from the Git I can glean that these applications will be delivered as packages that are signed and verified by their respective developers. Hereโs a short description of the goal of Isolated Web Apps. [web app that is being developed in the Chromium repository and Github](https://github.com/WICG/isolated-web-apps/blob/main/README.md).
