PWA Starter

Straight to Full Documentation

The PWABuilder pwa-starter is our opinionated, best practices, production tested starter that we use to build all of our PWAs, including PWABuilder itself! The pwa-starter is a starter codebase, just like create-react-app or the Angular CLI can generate, that uses the PWABuilder team's preferred front-end tech stack. We also have a CLI tool to allow you to create a PWA template from the command line.

Jump Right In

Install the PWABuilder CLI:

npm i -g @pwabuilder/cli

And create a new app with this command:

pwa create

And start your app locally with:

pwa start

And that's it! Good luck on your Progressive Web App adventure!
