Progressive Web Apps

A progressive web app (PWA) is a website whose user experience includes features that we normally associate with native apps, such as:

  • Fast load times
  • Smooth rendering and transitions
  • Offline support
  • Install on home screen

The reason they’re called “progressive” is that these features are added one-at-a-time (or progressively).

Overview

Leveraging over 20 years of Industry Experience, we have developed our very own Perfaware PWAKit Quickstart – a robust Salesforce Commerce Cloud Headless solution to get you started on your composable commerce headless journey.

As customer expectations of a flawless buying experience across multiple channels continues to grow, it is important to satisfy that demand. Allow your eCommerce team to unlock the power of best in class platforms and frameworks to build the ultimate storefront experience. The Headless approach provides the architecture and foundation to efficiently launch new features, manage content and campaigns, and improve storefront performance. This improves the experience and ultimately translates to happier customers.

The Perfaware PWAKit Quickstart solution provides out-of-the-box integrations to industry-leading open source platforms for CMS, Search, Product Reviews and Payments. It is tailored towards small to medium sized businesses who do not have existing services in place.

Features

Solid Foundation

The solution is built on top of the Salesforce Commerce Cloud PWAKit and Commerce APIs.

Stability Improvements

We have improved some key aspects of the original PWA including code refactoring, performance enhancements, and security hardening to ensure a smooth transition to a production environment.

Modern Technology Storefront

The solution is built upon ReactJS which provides you with access to a world class ecosystem of libraries, frameworks, and custom theming capabilities.

Benefits

Personalized Shopping Experience

Offer a common shopping experience across all channels with the ability to also customize and create personalized experiences on specific channels with low effort and resources.

Leverage the Power and Flexibility of APIs

This can be sized and scaled independently and increased on-demand for holiday and other peak seasons.

Client Application Flexibility

Create progressive web apps (PWAs) compatible with both devices and browsers, or develop tailored front-ends for mobile apps and internet of things (IoT) devices which leverage the same content and APIs for a homogeneous retail experience.

Composable Commerce

Headless gives you the flexibility to mix and match best in class platforms and services to build the ultimate commerce solution. Additionally, it is much easier to build integration points to your existing services, 3rd party providers and data sources.

Faster Time to Market

New features and functionality can be rolled out much faster as the scope is reduced to specific services which can be tested and deployed without interruption.

Increase in Productivity

Your teams can continue using tools and platforms they feel comfortable with instead of training against a single, monolithic, rigid platform with a high learning curve.

Merchandising and Promotion Upgrade

By integrating with your existing CMS, you can launch promotions and campaigns by building richer content, integrating design and styling systems, and accessing your static content in one place. Designers can create content once and deliver to all channels, or create specific content and campaigns for each channel separately.

Performance

The SFRA .isml templates that headless replaces have to pre-render content and transfer large amounts of HTML from the server, which is inherently slow. Using front end frameworks and libraries built on React and NodeJS provide opportunities to operate exclusively on JSON, compile code into webpacks, and split rendering duties between the client and server for an optimal and efficient page load experience.
