PWA - Progressive Web App

Most of developer and designers are still confused with newly introduced name by Google Progressive web apps (PWA). It is independent concept of web, it belongs to bootware of front-end.

You needs to setup progressive web app by your own. May below flow will help you to setup PWA.

  • Server end: Laravel, Codeigniter etc - Manipulate data and pass to view

  • View (Theme): Bootstrap - How to present data to user

  • Theme Bootware:

    1. Refer manifest at top of page definition.
    2. Handling body contents by Angluar, Vue etc.

That's it, PWA is the modern and smart concept for delivering to user devices which configure at top of page definition, no other special configuration required to start with PWA.

Best of luck ;)

Hi,

I'm having website developed in codeigniter and having index.php in the root folder, so can I convert my website into PWA..

I'm trying to migrate it but it's giving an error..

Is there any problem with .php files in PWA

PWA is a front-end technology- nothing to do with PHP
