Magento 2 Progressive Web Application The rise of smartphones accompanied by the lockdown imposed in the past years saw a spike in the use of mobile phones to surf the internet. This had a major impact on the world of retail, as more and more users were interacting with brands via smartphones. There were two solutions to this—responsive websites and native apps. So where does Magento 2 Progressive Web Application come in?
Understanding the Need of PWA Responsive websites- These are made for desktops and scaled for mobile. This might seem great on paper but practically resulted in an imperfect, lagging experience. Native apps- These are dedicated applications developed to function on only one Operating System. Thus, an iOS native app would only function on iOS devices & not on Android. This feature meant that apps need to be developed separately for both. Apart from that increased cost in production, they occupy your device’s storage to install and function.
What Is Progressive Web Application (PWA)? Progressive web applications (PWA) aim to solve the aforementioned problems. They released it to deliver a better mobile experience using a single code based on the browser. PWA embraces the positive features of responsive websites and apps as they are built with HTML, CSS and JavaScript keeping the mobile experience in mind.
