Free PWA Courses for Modern Web Development

Progressive Web Apps (PWA) combine the reach of the web with the reliability and feel of native apps. If you want to build fast, resilient experiences that work across devices, these free online PWA courses help you learn the skills employers expect in modern web development. You’ll explore how PWAs deliver offline access, instant loading, and installable experiences using core platform features like Service Workers and the Web App Manifest.

This collection focuses on practical, hands-on learning: creating an offline-first strategy, caching and update patterns, background behaviors, and building an app shell that loads quickly even on flaky networks. You’ll also learn how to make a web app installable, define icons and display modes, and ensure a polished user experience on mobile and desktop. Whether you’re a beginner looking to understand the PWA model or a developer upgrading an existing app, these free courses provide a clear path from fundamentals to real implementation.

What you’ll learn in these free PWA courses

  • PWA fundamentals: what makes an app a Progressive Web App and how it fits into web development workflows
  • Service Workers: lifecycle, registration, scope, and intercepting network requests for resilience
  • Caching strategies: cache-first, network-first, stale-while-revalidate, and when to use each
  • Offline-first design: building reliable UX when the network is slow or unavailable
  • Web App Manifest: app identity, icons, theme colors, display modes, and install prompts
  • Performance and UX: fast startup, app shell architecture, and responsive layout considerations
  • Testing and debugging: validating PWA requirements and troubleshooting caching and update issues

Progressive Web Apps (PWA) in Practice: Offline-First, Installable Web Apps with Service Workers and Web App Manifests

This free course emphasizes building a real PWA from the ground up. You’ll implement a Service Worker to cache critical assets, serve content during outages, and manage updates without breaking users. You’ll also configure a Web App Manifest so your site can be installed like an app, complete with icons, a launch screen feel, and a consistent display mode. By the end, you’ll be able to deliver an installable, offline-capable web app that feels smooth and reliable.

Why learn PWAs

PWAs can improve engagement and retention by reducing load times and enabling repeat visits through installed experiences. They are a practical choice for content sites, dashboards, e-commerce, and internal tools where reliability and performance matter. Start with these free PWA courses to build job-ready skills in offline support, caching, and installability—key capabilities in today’s web development projects.
