Should you build a progressive web app from scratch, code a native app, or use a generic web builder?

PWAs have gained momentum since being introduced by Google in 2015, and they’re considered by many as the next big thing for the mobile web.

A progressive web app essentially combines technology from mobile apps and web apps to offer a mobile experience that’s both user-friendly and easier to develop.

A PWA looks and feels just like a normal mobile app, but with the ease that comes with creating a website.

These types of apps use modern web browser features and APIs that give it a native-like user experience, despite it being a cross-platform application.

Some benefits include offline availability, mobile-like behavior, and easy installation. And while you certainly can publish your PWA in certain app stores, it’s not necessary in order to use it, as is the case with native apps.

Progressive web apps are the future of the mobile web, and more companies and industries are using this new standard to improve their performance.

PWAs are fast, reliable, and engaging—all while maintaining native-app experience.

In this video, we’ll take you through the world of progressive app development, how it can benefit your project, and how to build your own.
