I had posted this on Ask HN (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=30096235#30096410) a few days ago.

Your crawler perhaps could be customized to crawl and publish an index of all available Progressive Web Apps. A naive way would be to check for sites that have a PWA App manifest file in their root folder.

Let me know if you are interested in collaborating.

This looks very possible. It would only require a two modules for analysis and frontier management. It would be great to collaborate on something like this!

That's awesome. Thank you.

Please do think about it for the next couple of days and I will drop an email to you in the next 48 hours (I live in India). We can then decide how to take it forward.

Just curious: How long does an end-to-end crawl take and how much resources does the process consume (in terms of hardware/mem etc.,)?
