Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) offer a native app-like experience using web technologies and are cost-effective, fast, and SEO-friendly, making them attractive for businesses seeking to enhance user engagement and reduce development costs. Despite their advantages, PWAs face challenges such as a more complex installation process compared to native apps and limited offline functionality due to varying web API support across browsers. Capacitor, an open-source tool from Ionic, addresses these issues by enabling developers to convert PWAs into native apps, facilitating app store distribution, and ensuring a consistent user experience across platforms. By leveraging Capacitor, development teams can maximize their reach by deploying both PWAs and native apps, using a single codebase to meet users on their preferred platforms.
