I have tried so many times, but i found that PWA do not show to the users and let us install it. I only see it when i use the domain name is "localhost", can you give us some solution to solve this problem.

Update the browser to it's latest version. Most browsers have option to install PWA. If the option isn't available, try adding the site to Home screen by going to "More options" > "Add to Home Screen" in Chrome.

This issue isn't related to PW hence closing.

I have tried it, but PWA is not exist, i found it is available in your demo site. Could i some method to build the plugin local and install it manual to our browser.

PWA will only be available for sites hosted in HTTPS thus, localhost won't have PWA.

PWA won't work with localhost. You should deploy the app in a HTTPS site.
