Overview

About this plugin

3, we don’t support anymore native iOS app. This is a tough choice we explain here.

5x release. PWA are a new way to deliver fast, reliable and great experience on the web notably for mobiles. They allow to create apps accessible as websites that you can install and access as traditionnal mobile apps.

A great way to build progressive web apps (PWA) and mobile apps for your WordPress site using your favorite technologies: JavaScript, HTML and CSS.

Progressive web apps (PWA) and mobile applications are a great way to offer an outstanding mobile experience for your users. Using push notifications, letting users read offline, using saved accounts to share content are among many wonderful things you can do with mobile applications.

Build with Cordova or VoltBuilder: Since October 2020, Adobe has discontinued PhoneGap Build and ended investment in PhoneGap, so PhoneGap Build cannot be used to build WP-AppKit apps anymore. 0, WP-AppKit allows to build apps with raw Cordova tools or VoltBuilder online service.
