Progressive Web App (PWA) in a sub-folder

Question

Are there any implications for running a Progressive Web App (PWA) on a sub-folder of a site, rather than the domain's root?

Our site has an existing backend-driven site at the root of the domain, but we'd like to add a PWA for the "app" section that members can use.

The solution I often see is using a sub-domain like "app.example.com" to host the app, but I'd like to stay away from a separate domain if possible.

Yes, in my case the PWA app ( shortcut from desktop created from chrome) always pointing to the root of site hosted not the sub folder

Telling us what you did doesn't answer the question "are there any implications..." – Steve Feb 6 '18 at 7:03
It sounds like the implications are this it broke the desktop shortcut created from Chrome. – Stephen Ostermiller♦ Feb 6 '18 at 14:17
