I've read through https://learn.microsoft.com/en-us/microsoft-edge/progressive-web-apps-chromium/how-to/microsoft-store and understand how to generate an app from a PWA and publish it to the store.

What I don't understand is when I would need to regenerate the PWA to update it. Looking at the generated app packages, it seems like it is mostly images. I couldn't find much from the actual manifest except from the start-url.

I think it could be good to add a section explaining when you need to update your app. My guess would be that you need to do this:

  1. When you want to update assets in the store, or your app icon
  2. When you want to update your start-url

Is this correct? Are there more reasons to update a PWA app in the store?

This is a very good point @danielcompton. Let me make sure this issue is tracked on our backlog so we can prioritize it and update the docs.
I think your assumption about when you'd need to update the package in the store is correct, but we'll need to double-check internally with the right team before updating the docs.
