1. A method of configuring a personal computing device for communication with an aerosol generation device over a short-range wireless communication connection, the method comprising:
a native application launching a web browser on the personal computing device;
the web browser launching a progressive web application (PWA), on the personal computing device; and
the native application providing a resource to the web browser, which resource causes the web browser to process a call received by the web browser from the PWA intended for the aerosol generation device by directing a command based on the call to the native application, the command causing the native application to cause the personal communication device to communicate with the aerosol generation device over the short-range wireless communication connection.
