Universal App Development

With all the restrictions and limitations of centralized app stores, progressive web applications (PWAs) have boomed over the last couple of years to allow the use of more open standards in providing app-like experiences through the browser. You'll learn to use javascript to create a mobile app that can run across all platforms and enjoy the freedom, capabilities, and flexibility that comes with building PWAs.
