Just like any other Magento 2 extension, this PWA Maker tool is also a Magento 2 extension. Upon installing this extension on a Magento 2 website, it builds a customizable PWA derived from the data of that website. This keeps both the website & the PWA in live synchronization with each other.

Speaking of a customizable PWA, the Magento 2 PWA Maker tool provides the store-admins with various easy-to-use editing tools on the backend using which they can customize their PWA while it’s live. There is no need to worry about any downtime. Also, on the user-end, all the best & latest UI/ UX elements are equipped to provide an excellent user experience.

How Can Netizens Install A PWA?

Progressive Web Apps aren’t published in any of the app stores. Instead, they are made live on the website (on which this extension is installed). This means whenever netizens visit such a PWA active mobile-website, they are greeted with an ‘Add-To-HomeScreen’ popup at the bottom of the screen. Once they click it, the PWA automatically gets installed on their mobile device & appears to work just like any other mobile app on the mobile device.

How Store Owners Can Launch A PWA Using The Magento 2 PWA Builder?

Step 1: Purchase the Magento 2 PWA Mobile App Creator extension.

Step 2: Install this extension on your Magento 2 website.

Step 3: Fill the app pre-requisite form & review your app before making it live on your mobile website.
