Forbes.com has embraced Snapchat's interface in its mobile site redesign. It is the latest online publication to be inspired by the platform, with full-screen story cards presenting an image, title and author information.

PWA is a mobile/app hybrid that can be accessed through a browser and added to the home screen without needing an app store download.
