What is a Progressive Web App?

- [Instructor] Think about the way that you use the web on your phone or other mobile device. You probably surf the internet using a web browser, but you also likely download native applications that can be installed on your device. Things like weather, email apps, or social media apps like Twitter or Instagram. A Progressive Web Application can work on lower-speed networks, and it's installable. In other words, a PWA is an application that's like a mobile website and a mobile app all in one.
