Hello everyone,
I’ve been diving deep into how Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are evolving and wanted to discuss their potential impact on Core Web Vitals, particularly using the data we can extract from HTTP Archive.
As PWAs continue to gain traction, one area I’m especially curious about is how their implementation affects the key performance metrics that Google uses to rank sites, like Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS).
Given the nature of PWAs—offering offline capabilities, improved loading performance, and mobile-first designs—how do you think they align with or improve these web vitals? Are there trends emerging from the HTTP Archive dataset that show a significant difference in performance between PWAs and traditional websites?
I’m particularly interested in any data around:
- PWA adoption rates across different industries
- The effect of Service Workers and caching on LCP and FID
- Any trade-offs between functionality and performance when implementing PWAs
Looking forward to hearing your thoughts and insights!
