Does serviceworker.js need to load from the root

I am using the progressive web app module from Drupal and it loads the file from /pwa/serviceworker.js

Reading this article it says you need to load the Service worker from root https://frustrated.blog/2016/07/17/pwa_step_one.html and https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/sw-toolbox/issues/158

Can I load the service worker from anywhere? say modules/pwa/js/serviceworker.js ?

It seems to be working that way

If you load a service worker in /modules/pwa/js, it can only manage resources under this path. So, you have to place your SW at the root of your public path. A solution is to use url rewrite with an htaccess file for example.
