What changes when it is e-commerce
Built for a mid-range Android on mobile data, which is what most Indian users have, and what most web apps are never tested on.
In e-commerce, every change must be justified by a controlled experiment against revenue. That single fact reshapes how progressive web app development has to be built here, the guardrails, the approval points and the evidence trail are design inputs rather than things bolted on before go-live.
The workload we are most often asked to take on first is support automation, usually integrated against Shopify, Magento or custom storefronts. We start from the constraint, not the capability, what the system must never do, who signs off, and what happens when it is wrong.
Multi-model by default, so a provider outage is a routing decision rather than an incident. Six weeks to something running in production, not six quarters to a strategy document.

Questions from this sector
How quickly can we see conversion impact?
Search and recommendation changes usually show within two to four weeks of experiment traffic, assuming enough volume to reach significance.
Can you fix our catalogue data?
Yes, attribute extraction from images and descriptions, plus deduplication. Catalogue quality quietly limits both search and recommendations.
PWA or native app?
PWA when distribution friction matters more than deep hardware access, and when you want one codebase serving web and mobile. Native when you need background processing, rich notifications on iOS, or hardware the browser cannot reach.
Do PWAs work on iPhone?
Partially. Installation and offline work; some notification and background capabilities are limited or behave differently. We assess your specific requirements before recommending it.
Can it work with no signal?
Yes. That is the core design. Data is cached, actions queue locally, and sync happens when connectivity returns with defined conflict handling.
