It's not like this went away, though. You could always, and still can, write iOS apps this way. Safari even has the "add to home screen" feature which lets you run these apps without the Safari chrome around them.

Safari/Webkit still lags behind the other browsers, and finally started adding the basic features for PWAs last year.

It's nice that a lot has been implemented, albeit slowly. Though some may still think about Apple incentives.
