I will develop a progressive web app pwa for your existing web app


About this gig
This would allow your website to
- be faster to load
- work offline
- be installed like a native app, even though it can work without installation
I would add a Service Worker and manifest.json files.
Your app should be responsive (it's not a requirement). You should also consider adding some visual element to inform users of what is going on under the hood, for example when they are offline.
Differences between packages
With the BASIC one, your website will work offline showing a custom offline page (instead of the dinosaur one).
With the STANDARD one, your website will work offline (showing the main page) as it gets served from the local cache.
The PREMIUM one is like the standard one, but it allows you greater control over what gets cached. Recommend for websites with dynamic content.

FAQ
What a PWA is?
It's a regular web application (a web site) that uses some new features to cache content on users' devices to make loading faster and work offline. The offline support changes based on the Gig tier you choose (check the pricing section or contact me for more information)
How are PWAs better than traditional apps?
They are Cross-platform compatible, are much simpler to develop, they are store independent meaning that you won't have to upload your app in any store (even though you could). PWAs are also Search Engine friendly, so they can be found with simple research with Google (as an example).
Do i need to install something in order to use a pwa?
No, you don't. You have just to visit the web site and use it. Then, if you want, you can install it so it will appear in your Start menu/ app drawer
Is there any example of PWAs I can check out?
Yes. Some examples are Twitter (Lite, the mobile version of Twitter), Google Photos, Google Maps (it doesn't work offline), Telegram, 9GAG, Pokedex (pokedex.org), and many more!
Does a PWA work on older browsers?
Yes. On older browser it's just a regular website. On newer one instead, it has some super powers.
Does a PWA have special requirements?
The main one is to be served over HTTPS (with a valid SSL certificate), to register a service worker and a manifest.json file. The last two files are provided by me.
What will be included in the delivery?
Code required to convert your website in a PWA (service worker, manifest and registration script). Icons (based on the one you provide) of different sizes and an installation guide
