To make a Progressive Web App (PWA) feel more native, focus on enhancing user experience through performance, design, and features. Implementing a responsive design that adapts to various screen sizes and devices is crucial. Utilize modern web capabilities such as service workers for offline support, push notifications for engagement, and manifest files for home screen installation. Additionally, optimize your app's loading speed and interactions to match native app standards.

Native mobile or native desktop? The former is relatively easy, at least for Android. React and Angular both have very good Material UI libraries. But making a PWA feel like a native desktop app is hard. There's a reason most Electron apps adopt their own unique theme. I've never seen a component library that fully replicates a desktop UI without feeling like a web app, not even Microsoft's own Fluent UI web components.
