Progressive Web App is a term summarising all the features allowing you to deliver mobile-like experiences. Not only is it strongly promoted by Google. It is also quickly being adopted by big companies like Twitter or the Washington Post. A progressive web application takes advantage of the latest technologies to combine the best of web and mobile apps. Think of it as a website built using web technologies but that acts and feels like an app. Recent advancements in the browser and in the availability of service workers and in the Cache and Push APIs have enabled web developers to allow users to install web apps to their home screen, receive push notifications and even work offline. Progressive web apps take advantage of the much larger web ecosystem, plug ins and community and the relative ease of deploying and maintaining a website when compared to a native application in the respective app stores. For those of you who develop on both mobile and web, you’ll appreciate that a website can be built in less time, that an API does not need to be maintained with backwards-compatibility (all users will run the same version of your website’s code, unlike the version fragmentation of native apps) and that the app will generally be easier to deploy and maintain. According to a study, an average user spends 80% of his total time on apps on only three of his apps. The other apps just sit idle for most of this time consuming a precious portion of the memory. Moreover, it costs around ten times to develop an app rather than creating a website for the same. The cost can get much higher if you plan to develop and maintain separate code bases for different platforms like Android, iOS and the web. Native App features that PWAs can use Push notifications Full Screen Offline working Splash screen is supported giving it a more app like feel
