@Lighted_Candle: Just for the record I am not trying to build a Facebook or Amazon in Glide, nor even an Airbnb (though this has been done on a small scale already as proof of concept).

I’m using Glide right now as an MVP. It may stay in Glide, it may not.

I think I’m right in saying that Google introduced the concept of a PWA and one of the key tenets of a PWA is discoverability via deep links.

Glide is selling itself as a PWA, only it isn’t fully.

I think you are contradicting yourself as on one hand you’re saying ‘think differently’, then you’re saying Glide is probably the ‘wrong platform’ for my needs whereas how I see it is, apart from some of the technical limitations, Glide can be used for anything - there is practically no limit.

On a personal note, I love the constraints of Glide as they provoke creative thinking. A cursory glance at some of the diverse apps people have created will illustrate that.

So, let’s not keep going around in circles here. Deeplinking is an important tenet of the PWA concept, and that’s not just me saying that.
