Progressive Web App (PWA) Development
App-Like Experiences with Web-Like Speed.
Unlike native apps, which typically require installation and are often more resource-intensive, PWAs offer a lightweight, accessible alternative that can be used directly from the browser.
At Moving Traffic Media, we build PWAs that deliver the best of both worlds; the speed and accessibility of a website with the functionality of a native application, but without the need for complex platform-specific development.
We help brands create seamless, high-performance experiences that work flawlessly across devices, even offline. Whether you’re enhancing an existing site or building a standalone app-like platform, our progressive web app developers deliver solutions built for performance, reliability, and user engagement.

PWA Development Requirements
Building a successful PWA starts with a strong foundation in standard web technologies. Our developers are proficient in HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, as these are the core building blocks of any web app. We use these technologies to ensure that your application remains accessible, maintainable, and compatible across multiple platforms.
Our apps enable features like offline functionality, push notifications, and background tasks even when your stakeholders are working offline or on unreliable networks. Your stakeholders can install the PWA on their device’s home screen, giving it a native-like presence and making it easily accessible.
Our Approach
We start by analyzing your goals, audience, and current platforms to determine where PWA technology can make the biggest impact; from mobile conversion and user engagement to retention and repeat traffic. Then we design, develop, and deploy your custom PWA optimized for user experience.
Our process includes:
- Strategic assessment of user behavior and technical requirements
- UX/UI design for native-like interactions
- Development using modern frameworks (React, Vue, and Angular)
- Selecting the right tools to ensure efficient and scalable PWA development
- Progressive enhancement for browsers and devices
- QA, performance testing, and analytics integration
We also provide additional resources such as tutorials and guides to support our clients throughout the PWA development to launch process.
Designing the User Interface
A compelling user interface is at the heart of every successful progressive web app. To deliver a native-app feel, we adopt the app in shell model, which ensures that the core structure of the web app loads instantly and provides a smooth, app-like experience.
We design for a range of devices and operating systems prioritizing responsive layouts and adaptable components. Our interfaces automatically adjust to different screen sizes, ensuring that users enjoy a visually appealing and intuitive experience whether they’re on a smartphone, tablet, or desktop.
We incorporate modern design concepts and gather feedback throughout the development process to help refine the user interface, making it more intuitive and engaging. By focusing on usability and aesthetics, our team ensures your stakeholders can easily navigate and interact with the application from any device.
Push Notifications and Re-Engagement
Many of our clients use push notifications enabling direct communication with their PWA users to drive ongoing engagement. By utilizing the Push API, we can send notifications to users even when the web app isn’t open, keeping them informed about updates, promotions, or personalized content. These notifications can encourage users to return to the app, complete actions, or take advantage of special offers, boosting retention and conversion rates.
PWA Security and Privacy
We know security and privacy are fundamental to the success of any progressive web app. All our PWAs are served over HTTPS, ensuring that data exchanged between the user and the web application is encrypted and protected from interception or tampering. Our developers implement best practices for data handling and storage, such as using secure storage solutions and only collecting the information necessary for the app’s functionality.
By prioritizing security and privacy, we comply with industry standards and federal government regulations but also build trust with users. A secure progressive web app reassures users that their information is safe, fostering confidence and encouraging ongoing engagement with the app. Our commitment to privacy and security is central to all our development projects.
