What's a wrapper in this context?

An app that's just WebView?

Not WebView, but a so-called TWA, aka Trusted Web Activity, a features specifically designed to wrap PWAs and give them full-blown app capabilities.

What additional capabilities does that give the app beyond using Firefox or Chrome to install it as a PWA?
