Progressive Web Apps with React aims to give you everything you need to know about the future of web development. Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are becoming more and more common for companies looking to leverage the best the web can offer, powered by cutting-edge technologies that bridge the gap between web apps and native apps.

In this book, we'll leverage the power of the popular JavaScript library React.js to create a fast and functional UI. Then, we'll add Progressive Web App features such as push notifications and instant loading, using revolutionary new web technology. Finally, we'll streamline our app's performance and look at how to best measure its speed.
