FAQs

What is a PWA?
A Progressive Web App (PWA) is a type of web application that uses modern web technologies to deliver a user experience similar to native mobile apps. PWAs are designed to be fast, reliable, and engaging, offering features like offline access, push notifications, and home screen installation.
How does a PWA differ from a traditional web app?
Unlike traditional web apps, PWAs offer enhanced performance and user experience through technologies such as service workers and web app manifests. They can work offline, load quickly, and provide a more mobile app-like experience with the ability to be installed on a user's device.
Are PWAs secure?
PWAs are designed with security in mind. They must be served over HTTPS to ensure secure communication between the server and the client. Service workers also provide secure caching and data management to protect user data.
How do I know if a website is a PWA?
A website is considered a PWA if it meets certain criteria, such as having a service worker and a web app manifest. Tools like Google Lighthouse or browser developer tools can help identify whether a site is a PWA by checking these features. I will ensure your app meets all PWA criteria.
Can I convert my existing website into a PWA?
Yes, an existing website can be converted into a PWA by integrating the necessary technologies, such as service workers and a web app manifest. This process involves updating the site to support offline capabilities, push notifications, and other PWA features.
