Frontend tech leaders
Instructors: Shavit Cohen, Hagai Reuveni

In this workshop, we'll learn about Progressive Web Apps (PWA), why do we want to use it and how we can create one easily in a few small steps.

We'll cover the main features required in order to enhance a simple website to a PWA:

  • HTTPS
  • Manifest
  • Service Worker
  • Caching
  • User engagement - Web + Push notifications (If we'll have time and capacity :)

We'll use Workbox for caching and Firebase Cloud Messaging for push notifications (even when the browser is closed).

We'll talk about TWA and learn how we can know if our PWA is ready for the Google Play store.
