Just curious, how Dev.to app doesn't break AppStore rule 4.2 (Minimal functionality)?

In short, AppStore doesn't like websites wrapped by WebView.

Have you experienced any issues regarding this?

We have not experienced this issue yet. It's my hypothesis that this is a rule designed or optimized to catch poorly implemented versions of this approach.

Our app may not be quite as snappy as pure native, but it's a pretty good app overall and we definitely make use of native niceties in all the right places.

Good to hear! Your PWA is very snappy and sometimes faster in displaing content, than some "classic" apps with REST backend. Keep up good work!

Can you share sometime is there any secret ingredient for such speed, except CDN and Turbolinks?
