Things You Need To Know About Progressive Web Apps For years, Sphinx Solution is working with the latest trends and advance methodology to improve the user experience by offering a perfectly usable site to people using the older browser. Progressive Web Apps are the lighter version of the Native mobile apps. It applies to the website in a way that the standard sites embrace standard progressive betterment and responsive web design principles, but it keeps the traditional app experience intact.

How does it work?

Before Progressive Web Apps, another software was used to take a web application and wrap it in a platform-specific application wrapper that was installed via the appropriate app store.

This wrapper would then open the website inside their platform. While this system works, it provides only a few advantages over a well-developed website that users can directly visit in their browsers, outside of easier access to the device features like the camera or notifications.

This also allowed the app to be installed on the device’s home screen. Now creating the website shortcut is a standard and easy option.

Add to home screen options on the smartphones are not new, and Progressive Web Apps take the full advantage of it by making it work both online and offline, using push notifications and offering a single URL full screen “app” experience to the next level by working both online and offline, harnessing push notifications and provides a single URL for all users, regardless of the device they are using.

As HTML standards have become more widely supported, Progressive Web Apps now comes with many of the same capabilities as native apps, for instance, push notifications and the potential to be installed on the home screen, which reduces the need to develop and support native applications for both iOS and Android platforms.

Understanding with an example: Have you noticed, The Financial Times’ Progressive Web App that offers exactly the same experience as the native app? But interesting all its features are offered through a standard browser. A user can add the icon to the home screen that, when tapped, will take the user directly to the web app and starts loading content. Also, all the articles are loaded initially and stored locally, making browsing between quicker and easier even offline. As the user navigates between articles, the URL gets updated.

For the site’s developers, a single Progressive Web App let them update it as needed, and users can see the changes immediately without any manual updating.

As more and more people are using mobile devices to access sites, using Progressive Web Apps will ensure a good user experience. Whether you want to implement your own Progressive Web App or just want to revamp your existing app, we can help!

We hope this information will help you while talking to any top software development company.
