 * Hello [@setxnow](https://wordpress.org/support/users/setxnow/)
 * Thanks for trying out SuperPWA.
 * This error happens because WordPress doesn’t have the write permissions to generate
   the manifest and service worker files in the root directly.
 * Kindly ask your web host to adjust the folder permissions on the root folder 
   of WordPress to 755 and make sure that owner / group is the same as the user /
   group of the process that runs WordPress. Then deactivate and reactivate SuperPWA.
 * I have added some more details here: [https://superpwa.com/doc/fixing-manifest-service-worker-generation-failed-error/](https://superpwa.com/doc/fixing-manifest-service-worker-generation-failed-error/)
 * Please let me know how it goes so that I can know as well. Thanks!
