Problem

Get Kana! is a mobile app for learning the Japanese syllabaries. You can get it in the app store, because apparently people prefer their apps packed in 20 MB of cruft and from a proprietary distribution channel, but it actually started its life as a PWA. I took great care to ensure it worked nicely in desktop and mobile, across platforms, and it's also Open Source!

I would love to add "Get Kana!" to the list of PWAs.

Solution

It was using the old App Cache, I switched it to Service Workers in this commit, it was very simple thanks to sw-precache. I got a certificate and submitted a request to my hosting service to enable SSL, it should be done shortly.

Adding it to the list was straightforward. I changed the column-count to 4 because it looked really weird on 3, please let me know if I should change it.

Thanks for your consideration!

Here’s updated version of the logo: responsive (always fits viewport) and compressed a bit. We’ll check how it works and get back to this PR shortly.
