Is this some kind of joke?

I waited about half a minute for percent counter reach 100%, then it just keep loading with the counter beyond one hundred lol

So “progressive”

I think you’re confusing Progressive Web App (PWA) with Progressive Enhancement. PWA is basically a web app (typically an SPA) that behaves like a native app, as described in the MDN page they reference. Loading progressively such that the page is still useful without JS is Progressive Enhancement.

It’s conflating progressive with “progress”. It’s like conflating functional programming with whether it functions.

To be fair, Progressive Web App is a pretty stupid nomenclature.
