The core of progressive web apps are [service workers](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/primers/service-workers/), which are effectively client-side Javascript daemons. Service workers can listen for a few kinds of events and react to them. One of the most commonly supported events is the [fetch event](https://jakearchibald.github.io/isserviceworkerready/#fetch-event); this can be used to cache web content offline as explained below.
There are a large number of web apps that fit just fine within these [rules and restrictions](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/Apps/Progressive/App_structure), however there could potentially be compatibility issues with existing code. Instead of waiting for Apple or Google to approve and push out app updates, service worker (and by extension Progressive Web App) updates will be fetched [following standard HTTP caching rules](https://stackoverflow.com/questions/38843970/service-worker-javascript-update-frequency-every-24-hours). Plus, you get to use plenty of native APIs, including geolocation, camera, and sensor APIs that only native mobile apps used to be able to take advantage of.

In this post, we’ll show you how to convert your existing website into a progressive web app. It’s fairly simple, only really requiring the following steps:
