Convert any RapidWeaver website into a PWA with advanced caching and push messaging.

PWA Stack

The PWA Stack adds a new dimension to your RapidWeaver pages with the introduction of the Service Worker. Service Workers sit in the background and act as a proxy between your web site, browser, and network (web server), opening up new opportunities for offline experiences, background syncing, and push notifications.

This stack enables Service Worker caching for both desktop and mobile devices, with customisable caching options, pre-cached resources and an offline fallback page.

Featuring:

  • Works on both desktop and mobile devices.
  • Supported by all major browsers and Safari for IOS.
  • Use advanced caching only without install option.
  • Wed designers can see instant updates to changes.
  • Easily apply multiple custom cache strategies.
  • Pre-Cache pages, JS, CSS, images and more.
  • Custom offline and start pages.
  • Add multiple PWAs to a single website.
  • Send Push Messages to visitors (beta);
    • some restrictions apply.

Note: Push messaging does not currently work on IOS

PWA stands for Progressive Web App. They utilise the latest browser technology and can be installed onto devices so they behave just like native apps.
