I've been working on WordPress plugins for years, and recently decided to rebuild a PWA plugin from the ground up rather than keep adding to an old codebase.

The interesting part has been dealing with the real-world stuff:

• Service-worker caching and updates
• iOS vs Android PWA behavior
• Offline support
• Caching/CDN/plugin conflicts
• Push notification permissions and subscriptions
• Making the installation experience feel more like a real app

I've recently added push notifications for Android, desktop, and iOS, and I'm still improving the project based on real-world testing.

The project is Hyper PWA.

I'd love to hear from other WordPress developers:

What has been the biggest problem you've faced when implementing or maintaining a PWA on WordPress?

I'm especially interested in feedback about things that existing PWA plugins don't handle well.

Full disclosure: I'm the developer behind Hyper PWA. I'm sharing it here because I'd genuinely like technical feedback and ideas for improving it.

There are now so many website builders, AI tools, and SaaS platforms available, but WordPress still powers a huge number of websites.

Personally, I still think WordPress has a major advantage when it comes to SEO, flexibility, and the number of tools available.

I'm also curious about PWAs. Do you think turning a WordPress website into a PWA still provides value today, or are most website owners no longer interested in features like offline access, installability, and an app-like experience?

What do you think?
