OxPWA Advanced and Pro will be available in the next few days.
I would like to thank OW-Ghost for the idea and Dave for the immense amount of help and support I received to make this a reality so quickly!
Dave is an amazing individual with great knowledge while remaining extremely kind and patient!I know you're retired, but I hope to work with you much more in the future on making our Oxwall dreams come true!
Now, I've received some questions regarding the plugins so I want to address them here and give a quick breakdown.
First though, if you want to be in the Apple or Google Play Store, please contact me directly.
I may be providing a plugin for this in the future, but I can get you in the App Stores in less than 3 days in most cases!
OxFest is the first plugin and it allows you to create a W3C Manifest. This one doesn't create a Progressive Web App for you but gets you to 73% of a PWA. It is mainly for Hybrid App development and for assisting in your own PWA solution.
For PWA Versions:
All PWA Versions create a functional Progressive Web App that allows Users to Install from Web. This works for Mobile (Android, Apple, Windows) and Desktop Oxwall Installations. This however does not get you in ANY of the App Stores. I will build you a custom Hybrid Cordova App in a day if that is the solution you're after!

I'm not entirely sure yet if this works with other Caching plugins, but I believe it should as these other plugins mostly provide Server Side Caching where as the OxPWA plugins provide User Side Caching. They should work together and provide a smoother user experience in general, but would need to be tested further to confirm.
You can test this out to see if it works at my site:

I will be working on support and bugs tonight and tomorrow along with releasing the next two plugins.
There are certain issues I've identified regarding caching of Google Adsense Ads. Honestly, that is to be expected because of the randomly riddled errors in the JS Ads coming from Adwords.
