What are Progressive Web App(PWA)?

PWA is probably the new age of apps. You get the best experience of both worlds. PWAs work both ways, like a Native App as well as Web App. The creators clique for PWA has not yet grown but we can expect a breakthrough if essential apps are built with PWA clearance.

Native App are the ones that are installed in your pc or mobile while Web apps run only in your browser. While both have their own pros and cons, PWA tries to utilize the best of both.

While going through the essentials of PWA I build a basic PWA weather app. Thanks to a brilliant tutorial by @javascriptmastery, if you are looking to try building a PWA do visit their YouTube page.

Checkout this link to try the PWA weather app:

https://weather-progressive.netlify.app/

GitHub:

The PWA Weather App uses https://openweathermap.org/api
This app is hosted in Netlify.

Will post soon on how to host your apps free without breaking your head.
