Progressive Web App Development Services
What Is a Progressive Web App?
In simple terms, a progressive web app is a website that mimics the look, feel, and functionality of a native mobile application. They are accessible through app stores just like a regular app to allow offline functionality but can also be found through search engines and used within mobile browsers.
Leverage the Advantages of PWA Development
Lightweight
Progressive web applications are like websites, loading everything on the spot. Data usage and size become a non-issue.
PWAs Work Offline
PWA allows offline navigation by caching and storing part of the data displayed in the app. They utilize service worker capabilities to provide data while also enhancing performance by dealing with cached resources, managing networks, and enabling push notifications, even offline.
Great Performance
PWA loads faster by using service workers running in the background to do the heavy lifting. These scripts run separately from the web page and prefetch all the necessary data to keep navigation fast and seamless.
Platform and Device Agnostic
Building progressive web apps focus on looks, feel, cross-platform support, and total device support. Even big names like Starbucks, Twitter, TikTok, and Forbes have opted to use progressive web applications due to their reduced cost and full compatibility.
Smaller Development Cost
Progressive web applications use common programming languages like JavaScript, HTML, and CSS, and maintenance requires a single team focusing exclusively on web development.
Distribute without an App Store
No need to use the app store when working with a PWA. Using a modern browser like Chrome or Firefox, users access your app and receive updates, making PWAs convenient for consumers and businesses alike.

It depends on the complexity of your site. A simple static website can be designed from scratch in a couple of weeks. A more complex site with thousands of products and many features will take much longer.

Can I fix my old website instead of starting with a new one?
