Question 1

How does PWA differ from the native apps?

Accepted Answer

While PWAs can be downloaded directly from the browser, native apps need to be downloaded from Google Play/Apple App Store. In terms of development, PWAs are cross-platform by default, while native apps use platform-specific languages and maintain different codebases for different platforms. Native apps need to download upgrades from app stores, PWAs get auto-updated in the background. Native apps don’t function well in poor-network areas, but PWAs are network independent.
