Simplifying PWA Development with Clean APIs with PWAFire

A lightweight library that provides web app patterns for building modern web applications.

PWAFire

Quick intro

I created PWAFire - a lightweight library that provides web app patterns for building modern web applications.

The Problem with Native PWA APIs

Working with native browser APIs often means:

  • verbose boilerplate code for simple tasks
  • inconsistent browser support and quirks
  • complex fallback logic for unsupported features
  • repetitive feature detection across projects

PWAFire provides web app patterns that wrap these complex APIs into simple, consistent methods:

import { webShare } from "pwafire/web-share";
import { copyText } from "pwafire/clipboard";

// e.g share stuff through native os share dialog
await webShare({
  title: document.title,
  url: window.location.href
});

// or just copy to clipboard
await copyText(window.location.href);

These patterns automatically handle:

  • feature detection - checks if Web Share is supported
  • cross-browser compatibility - works on all modern browsers
  • error handling - provides consistent error responses
