Progressive web app (PWA)
Progressive web app (PWA) to replace mobile and desktop apps (one codebase)

- Trusted Web Activities (PWA for Android), https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TCgT8dzSiU8
- This also addresses missing features across on Android/iOS like:
- GitLab sign in for mobile apps automagically if a community contribution doesn’t happen, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/gitter-android-app/issues/90
- Soon to be threaded conversations, https://gitlab.com/gitlab-org/gitter/webapp/issues/741
Push notifications
There is a web-push
feature toggle on https://next.gitter.im/ which enables the service worker and push notifications. We could roll this out to the public.
iOS does not support browser push notifications yet so those user's would be lacking. We could potentially setup bare bones "Gitter push notifications" app that just received push notifications and links off to the browser.
Offline capable
TBD
