The Progressive Web App (PWA) Kit – is a set of web applications that are part of the Salesforce Composable Storefront using the Salesforce Commerce API and React.
PWA Kit allows front-end developers to use more flexible methods and approaches when developing and maintaining modern ecommerce systems.
Another update from PWA Kit 2.7.0 to PWA Kit 3.0.0 has now been releasedThis version focuses on localization updates and improvements related to SEO, performance and user experience.
We asked Denys Kezlia (SFCC FED Lead), who has already familiarized himself with this technology and uses it when working on projects, what important changes and main aspects developers should pay attention to:
- All PWA Kit code is now an NPM module and resides in Node_modules.
- It is now possible to overwrite components, utilities, routes and hooks using Template Extensibility.
- Some hooks have been completely rewritten. Therefore, when updating from v2 to v3, it is necessary to check the correct operation of each component and hook separately.
- Upgrade to React 18, Node 16/18
- Chakra UI update to v2
- MRT-side variables for security keys are coming soon.
