Progressive web applications (PWA) are a type of web application that can be used as a web page and mobile app on any device. PWAs are written in web technologies that can look and behave like regular web pages. They load instantly and respond quickly to user interactions. PWAs can be easily found and optimized in search engines. Also, they offer similar functionalities to native mobile apps, such as working offline and sending push notifications, and they use device hardware the same way as native apps.
