Progressive
web app development
in Mountain View

Google invented core PWA technologies — Service Workers, Web App Manifest, and the Lighthouse audit tool that measures PWA quality. Mountain View is where PWAs were born, and local businesses benefit from this ecosystem. Google Chrome (developed blocks from your office) provides the best PWA support of any browser, and Android (also Mountain View-born) offers native-like PWA installation. Toimi builds PWAs leveraging Mountain View's home-field advantage — using the technologies that Google's own teams optimize and promote.

Service Workers for offline access and background sync, Web Push API for notifications, Web App Manifest for home screen installation, Cache API for instant repeat visits, IndexedDB for local storage, and responsive layouts. For advanced Mountain View use cases: WebRTC for real-time communication, WebGL for data visualization, and Web Bluetooth for IoT connections. We build PWAs that score 95+ on Lighthouse — the very audit tool developed in Mountain View to measure PWA quality.

Sub-1-second first contentful paint, sub-3-second time to interactive, and 95+ Lighthouse scores. We implement code splitting, service worker caching, SSR, optimized assets via CDN, and aggressive lazy loading. For Mountain View users on campus Wi-Fi, the experience feels native. For commuters on Caltrain or VTA, offline-first architecture keeps the app functional. Our performance targets are set by the expectations of users who work at the company that defines web performance standards.

Offline capability is a PWA superpower. We implement comprehensive offline strategies — caching critical data, queuing actions for sync, meaningful offline UI. For Mountain View sales teams at conferences, field researchers, and commuters in connectivity dead zones along Highway 101, our PWAs provide uninterrupted functionality. Data syncs automatically when connectivity returns, with conflict resolution for simultaneous changes.

We specialize in progressive enhancement — adding service workers, offline capability, push notifications, and installability to existing React, Angular, or Vue.js applications without rebuilding. For Mountain View companies with established web apps, we layer PWA features incrementally, testing each addition's impact. This evolutionary approach preserves codebase investment while dramatically improving mobile experience — delivering 80% of native app value at a fraction of the cost.

PWAs excel for content platforms, e-commerce (reducing checkout friction by eliminating app downloads), internal enterprise tools, event apps, and service platforms where installation friction kills adoption. The decision hinges on hardware access needs — if your Mountain View app primarily involves content and interaction without deep camera, sensor, or Bluetooth requirements, a PWA delivers outstanding value. We help Mountain View companies evaluate this decision honestly, recommending native when PWA limitations would compromise the experience.

We implement Web Push API with strategic notification design — segmented by behavior, optimized timing, granular preferences, and easy opt-out. Mountain View's notification-fatigued users respond only to genuinely valuable alerts. Our re-engagement strategy respects attention — transactional updates, personalized content, and time-sensitive offers rather than generic blasts. We test notification strategies with Mountain View audiences, optimizing open rates and minimizing unsubscribes.

We offer continuous support — service worker updates, performance monitoring, browser compatibility testing, and feature development as new Web APIs become available. Mountain View's proximity to Chrome development means new browser capabilities arrive here first. Our maintenance ensures your PWA leverages these capabilities quickly, keeping your Mountain View business at the forefront of progressive web technology.
