Analysis of the Use of Progressive Web Apps (PWA) to Improve Web Application Accessibility in Areas with Limited Connectivity

Abstract

The development of web technology demands applications that can be accessed quickly and remain stable, including in areas with limited internet connectivity. Progressive Web Apps (PWA) are a technology that combines the advantages of web and native applications, offering features such as offline mode, caching, and push notifications. This study aims to analyze the extent to which PWA implementation can improve the accessibility of web applications under limited network conditions. The research method used is qualitative descriptive analysis to examine the potential of Progressive Web Apps (PWA) in enhancing web application accessibility in low-connectivity environments. Data was collected through a literature review of previous studies, technical documentation, and case studies related to PWA implementation in developing regions. The results of this study are expected to provide practical insights into the effectiveness of PWAs in improving user experience in areas with network limitations.
