Episode 36: What is a Progressive Web App?

What We Cover In This Episode: What progressive web apps are all about [1:25] Why fitDEGREE chose a progressive web app and the benefits this approach gave us and our clients [3:54]  The reasons that web-based apps are crucial in this industry [7:59] How having a progressive web app sets us up for continued success in the future [9:38] Where our best ideas always come from [10:58] Quotes: "For the longest time, when you would make an app for an iPhone or an Android phone, you would have to code the app in specific languages for that platform. You'd have to build the app, submit it to Apple and Google, and then have them approve it to put it on their store." [1:37] "By going the web app route, we were able to have half the amount of developers in the early days and focus all our time on building one app versus two apps." [4:34] "I think that's what gave us kind of a competitive edge, having that platform where we could build one app that goes to iOS, Android and web." [7:49] "Overall, I think that all apps that don't need intensive power are going to start going the web app route, if they haven't already." [9:27] "Our clients keep it easy for us. We don't have to be creative that much because they tell us what they want and need and that is the route we usually go with new features and new additions to the software."
