How to add PWA support in React
Progressive Web Apps combine the best of web and native applications, providing offline functionality, push notifications, and home screen installation for enhanced user engagement. As the creator of CoreUI, a widely used open-source UI library, I’ve built PWA-enabled dashboards throughout my 12 years of frontend development since 2014. The most reliable approach is using Create React App’s built-in PWA template or adding Workbox for custom service worker configuration. This method provides automatic caching strategies, offline support, and update management without complex service worker code.
How to make Angular app a PWA
Converting Angular applications to Progressive Web Apps provides an app-like experience with offline support, home screen installation, and push notifications. As the creator of CoreUI with over 11 years of Angular development experience since 2014, I’ve built PWAs for numerous enterprise clients. The most effective solution is to use Angular’s PWA schematic which adds all necessary files and configurations. This approach transforms your app into a fully-featured PWA with minimal effort.
