The PWA score is calculated based on the [Baseline PWA checklist](https://developers.google.com/web/progressive-web-apps/checklist#baseline), which lists 14 requirements. Lighthouse tests for 11 out of the 14 requirements automatically, with the other 3 being manual checks. Each of the 11 audits for the PWA section of the report is weighted equally, so implementing any of the audits correctly will increase your overall score by ~9 points. +*Note on https redirects*: some metrics in this category have issues with https redirects because of TLS-handshake errors. More specifically you will run into this when using the ```simplehttp2server``` npm package. Subsequent metrics will fail after the https redirects (see #1217, #5910) + # Accessibility ### How is the accessibility score calculated? The accessibility score is a weighted average of all the different audits (the weights for each audit can be found in [the scoring spreadsheet](https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1Cxzhy5ecqJCucdf1M0iOzM8mIxNc7mmx107o5nj38Eo/edit#gid=0)). Each audit is a pass/fail (meaning there is no room for partial points for getting an audit half-right). For example, that means if half your buttons have screenreader friendly names, and half don't, you don't get "half" of the weighted average-you get a 0 because it needs to be implemented *throughout* the page.
