PWAs are game changer for startups : Zarvani's journey from web to google play store
Published on Thu Apr 18 2024
If startups dont do well they die or if they grow they grow in a pace that most of the time it becomes unaffordable to startups to keep up with that pace or at least struggle to host more growth. Especially in the scenario of starups that are powered by tech. When your startup is not growing and is standing still, that might feel like stability but in fact, your startup is simply SLOWLY dying.
We will talk about the general solutions to these problems and then will go on about talking how PWAs are game changing in the scenario of startups.
Growth comes from stability and stability comes from scalability. Your startup is scalable when your business is flexible to grow. For example,if your app is flexible to add new fearure to adapt with the needs of your growing need of your users, your app is scalable and hence your business is scalable and can grow. PWAs are scalable but if built right. PWA is short form of Progressive Web App. If you open facebook, youtube, twitter and almost all big company's website you can see a download button in bowser bar demonstrated below. You can also see such button in https://zarvani.com . Simply clicking the button will allow you to install Zarvani app. No hassle of going to the google play store. That's the functionality of PWA.
However, PWAs can also be published in google play store as publishing there is important to be exposed to billions of users of google play market. The most powerful advantage of google play published PWA against natively developed app according to me is that when new features will be developed in Zarvani it will not prompt the users of Zarvani app to update their app, instead the existing installed app will update automatically unless the app goes through a full brand change. Thus PWA not only solves the problem of scalability but makes it way easier and hassle free. While every feature update in native android app developement process reaches to users after they have updated the app through google play store.

We used technologies like Next js. Which is a full stack framework powered by javascript. Leveraging it's system structure of writing server and client code in same directory makes it as scalable as any mordern tech stack, if not more.
Wrapping up the topic of scalability in the context of startups, now let's focus on the part where startups are not doing well and dying. Well, there are very few way where only tech can single handedly save a dying business as there are multiple factors like marketing, competitors, pricing, design etc plays important role as well. However, how PWA can help in this matter is that android app build with PWA also costs way less than conventionally build android app. Within the budget of making an android app, PWA offers android app along with website. Where in conventional way, software development agencies charge you for website and app separately, we build app AND website within the budget of an android app that those software agencies ask. This can potentially save up to 25-40% of your software development costing. As is the case of Zarvani.
Thus you can reach your technological goal of your startup with way less risk. So that even if your startup is dying, it at least should die with 25-40% less loss. As not all ideas are bulletproof.
