Aplicația PWA (Progressive Web Application) reprezintă un program creat în baza codurilor HTML, CSS, Java Script, JSON și pot fi descărcate direct de pe site-ul producătorului. Aceste aplicații nu necesită o platformă de distribuție ca Google Play sau App Store de la Apple.[3]
Aplicațiile PWA sunt funcționale chiar și in modul offline pe platformele care suportă activitatea unui browser, deoarece folosesc browserele pentru a rula. Ca rezultat, din perspectiva utilizatorilor, funcționarea unei aplicații PWA nu se deosebește de funcționarea unei aplicații native.

Engleza:
Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are web apps that use service workers, manifests, and other web-platform features in combination with progressive enhancement to give users an experience on par with native apps.
PWAs provide a number of advantages to users — including being installable, progressively enhanced, responsively designed, re-engageable, linkable, discoverable, network independent, and secure.
