How We Build PWAs That Actually Feel Native
We use Next.js with service worker configuration, Web App Manifest, and Workbox caching strategies to deliver PWAs that pass Google's Lighthouse PWA checklist and feel indistinguishable from native apps.
Client Result
Replaced Two Native Apps With One PWA at Half the Cost
A Hamilton professional services firm was maintaining separate iOS and Android apps. We rebuilt as a single PWA with offline support, push notifications, and home screen install. They eliminated $30K/year in App Store developer overhead and cut feature release timelines from 3 weeks to 3 days.

The question I ask first is whether a native app is actually necessary. Most of the features clients think require native apps — offline support, push notifications, camera access — are fully available in modern PWAs. And a PWA ships in one codebase instead of three.
The businesses that benefit most are ones running field service tools, customer portals, or internal operations apps. If the audience already has your URL bookmarked, turning it into an installable PWA is often the easiest upgrade with the highest perceived impact.
