PWA is not the one technology. It represents a list of technologies, with the help of which you can choose the best application features to combine with your website.
PWA features:
- Accessibility. PWA can provide the ideal solution for businesses looking to build a compelling and easily adoptable mobile experience for their customers. PWAs offer the best of both worlds, with all the shareability of the web and all the functionality of the native app.
