In recent years, there has been a huge increase in the number of mobile users. People are becoming mobile and they are mostly using their smartphones for surfing websites. Hence, the website owners are now taking every step to make sure their website runs smoothly on mobile phones. Especially, the e-commerce industry is not leaving a stone unturned to provide a better user experience to users on the mobiles. With this need, new technology came into existence named “Progressive Web Applications” or PWA. Know the importance of PWAs In Magento E-commerce?
PWAs are intended to provide a better user experience to the customers but at lesser costs. The site owners don’t need to develop a mobile application, instead, they can opt for developing a PWA. Even large companies are using this technology such as Twitter, Alibaba, Trivago, Walmart, etc. These are not limited to only these large companies but also getting used by small & mid-sized companies.
PWAs become an instant hit. Many companies start providing PWA solutions. But one company came with uniqueness and developed a PWA theme for one of the largest e-commerce platforms Magento. ScandiPWA is the first open-source PWA theme for Magento.
Unlike many other solutions, it is not a storefront. There is not a middle layer in ScandiPWA which can slow down its speed or performance, cause bugs, or need more resources. This is a PWA theme which can be installed for any Magento 2.3 version or newer. It is a Magento first solution which allows you to use the same backend with which your developers are already familiar. In this article, we will know more about ScandiPWA, its benefits, and many other things.
