Why use PWA for Shopware store development
With PWA, Shopware stores can provide a top-notch, app-like shopping experience without requiring customers to download a dedicated mobile app. This boosts customer engagement and potentially increases sales, as PWAs are fast, reliable, and engaging.
Appearance
When developing a Shopware store, PWAs provide customers with an attractive user interface. The UI elements are designed and optimized to fit into the native look and feel of Shopware. This helps create a seamless experience for the customer who is familiar with how Shopware looks and works on desktop or mobile, enhancing the overall shopping experience. The essence of PWA is that users do not need to download the application. They can save a PWA on the screen, where it looks like an app icon, in a second to quickly access store features.
Development
The Shopware PWA platform not only provides a secure and robust environment for developing an e-commerce store, but also offers many features to make the development process easier and faster. The app size is kept to a minimum, reducing the amount of data that needs to be transferred. All data transmitted is done so via HTTPS, making sure that customer data remains secure at all times. This ensures both the customers and the shop owners are protected. Finally, Shopware PWA offers a great level of flexibility when it comes to creating a unique design and functionality.
User Experience
PWA web development provide a superior user experience compared to traditional apps or website. They are designed to work offline, providing instant loading times and no page refresh. Navigation is made easier with a focused menu and interactive elements such as an animation when users scroll down the page. PWAs also have cross-platform capabilities, allowing them to be used on all sorts of devices, including desktop computers and smartphones. Additionally, PWAs are built to be cross-browser compatible, meaning customers will have the same seamless experience regardless of which browser they are using.

API Layer
Store API takes the concept of an API first design to the next level. It puts control in the hands of front-end developers, who decide which data they need and how they want to consume it. Store API makes sure that both requests and responses are optimized for speed, providing maximum efficiency when retrieving just the necessary information. With this powerful resource, developers can build projects faster, with fewer resources and less complexity.
Overall, Shopware 6’s Store API is a powerful tool that helps to reduce the complexity of web development by ensuring maximum efficiency. It provides easy access to data in the most optimized way possible, allowing developers to focus on creating unique user experiences without worrying about complex coding or performance issues. This is the perfect tool for creating fast, modern websites that provide a great user experience.
Backend
Shopware PWA is the newest version of Shopware, with an improved and modernized user experience and a more efficient development workflow. It gives merchants complete control over their shopping experiences, enabling them to create native, optimized stores for mobile devices that are fast, secure and scalable. With its cutting-edge features – like mobile device support, Support for multiple languages and currencies, a built-in caching layer and Progressive Web App (PWA) technology – Shopware PWA allows merchants to create an engaging experience that is tailored to the needs of their customers.
At the same time, Shopware still makes sure that its earlier frontend solution is available and usable. This means that merchants have the flexibility to make decisions about which version of Shopware they want to use. Whether it is the improved Storefront API and PWA technology or the tried and tested earlier frontend – it’s up to each merchant’s individual needs. This gives merchants more control over their stores, while giving them the confidence that their stores will remain relevant and up-to-date.

PWA web development vs Native app development
PWA
Native Apps
Generally lower, as there is no cost associated with publishing a PWA to the web. Deployment is also simpler and faster than for native apps.
Generally higher, due to the cost of development and deployment in Apple’s App Store or Google Play Store.
PWAs provide a near-native experience and behave like regular apps, but are more lightweight than native apps.
Native apps tend to provide a better user experience due to the dedicated hardware optimized for the platform they were built on.
PWAs can be easily discovered through search engine optimization (SEO) and social media shares.
Native apps must be downloaded from an app store, making them harder to discover by users.
PWAs do not need to be installed on a device; they can simply be accessed via the browser.
Native apps require downloading and installation from an app store.
PWAs can be updated directly on the user’s device, with no need to go through a third-party app store.
Native apps must be downloaded and installed anew each time there is an update, which requires approval by Apple or Google.
Performance of PWA for Shopware can vary depending on network speed, as they are reliant on the web.
Native apps generally offer better performance and loading times, but can be affected by hardware limitations.
As PWAs run in a browser, they are supported across all platforms with no additional development.
Native apps must be developed separately for each platform, making them more expensive to create and maintain.
PWAs are generally secure, as they use a secure connection with encryption and access control features.
Native apps tend to provide more advanced security features such as biometrics, but also require additional development.
