Progressive Web Applications
Native app experience with web technology simplicity
Build fast, reliable web applications that work offline, are installable on home screen, and deliver push notifications—all without app store friction.
What is a Progressive Web App?
The future of web applications
A Progressive Web Application (PWA) is a web application that uses modern web technologies to deliver an app-like experience. PWAs work offline, can be installed on a user's home screen, support push notifications, and provide lightning-fast performance.
Unlike traditional web apps, PWAs feel and function like native apps, but without the friction of app stores. Your users can install your app with a single click, access it instantly, and keep using it even without internet connection.
PWAs work on any device with a modern browser—no app store approval process, no gatekeepers, just pure user reach.
Why Choose Progressive Web Apps?
Combine web simplicity with app functionality
PWAs are the smart choice for businesses wanting native app benefits without the app store complexity.
**No app store gatekeeping.** Ship updates instantly without waiting for app store approval. Your users always have the latest version.
**Offline-first architecture.** Your app works without internet. Service workers cache critical content, so users can browse, interact, and come back online when ready.
**Lightning-fast performance.** PWAs load instantly and feel smooth. Users see cached content immediately, making your app feel faster than native apps.
**Push notifications.** Re-engage users with timely push notifications, even when the app isn't open. Drive repeat visits and user retention.
**Installable.** Users can install your PWA to their home screen with one tap. It launches like a native app, taking up minimal space.
**Cross-platform.** One codebase works on iOS, Android, web, and desktop. No need to maintain separate apps.

Analytics & Data Strategy
Plan how you'll track user engagement, installation rates, and offline usage patterns.
Marketing & Distribution
PWAs need distribution strategy (social, email, web, QR codes) since there's no app store presence.
