Chrome has the ability to save sites as a desktop shortcut. It even prompts you to do so on some web apps, like Stadia, so you can use it like a more "normal" desktop app.

Safari on iOS can do this, too. You can pin a website to your home screen, which is something that I have done for PWAs.

It could have easily gone another way where this was the "normal" behavior of the mobile ecosystem.
