PWA - Progressive Web App

[carueda]

As the core functionality of the overall ORR system stabilizes, start considering aspects of Progressive Web Apps (https://developers.google.com/web/progressive-web-apps/) to greatly improve the user experience.

For reference, before any changes targeting performance, PWA, accessibility, etc., the summary of the Lighthouse report on v3.6.0, just performed, looks like this:

With some preliminary changes, including minification (#111), the results are:

What is the work ticket here @carueda ?

It is as indicated in the description.

EDIT: Sorry @lewismc, let me elaborate a bit. As explained in the google link above:

Progressive Web Apps are user experiences that have the reach of the web, and are:

• Reliable - Load instantly and never show the downasaur, even in uncertain network conditions.

• Fast - Respond quickly to user interactions with silky smooth animations and no janky scrolling.

• Engaging - Feel like a natural app on the device, with an immersive user experience.

So, given the various aspects involved, the entry here should probably be considered an umbrella for more concrete tasks, or perhaps just be removed for the sake of avoiding possible confusion and/or cleaning up the tracker. I'm not sure. Thoughts?
