Built and deployed a fully functional Progressive Web Application (PWA) for my platform, Pomstok — transforming a standard web app into an installable, app-like experience across mobile and desktop devices.
The project involved implementing core PWA technologies including:
Web App Manifest configuration
Service Worker setup and caching strategies
Offline asset handling
Install prompts for mobile and desktop
HTTPS optimization for secure installation
Responsive mobile-first UI/UX
Performance optimization for faster loading
Pomstok can now be installed directly from the browser without needing the Play Store or App Store, giving users a smoother and more native-like experience.
Key features of the PWA implementation:
• Installable on Android, iOS, and Desktop
• Faster repeat visits through caching
• Offline support for selected resources
• Lightweight and optimized performance
• App-style navigation and fullscreen experience
• Improved engagement and retention
Tech stack used:
PHP • JavaScript • HTML5 • CSS3 • Service Workers • Web App Manifest • MySQL
This project strengthened my experience in modern web technologies and performance-focused development, especially in building scalable web applications that behave like native apps while remaining lightweight and accessible through the browser.
