When PHPStan reports that your extension calls a deprecated method, the expected next step is quite clear: find the replacement and migrate your code. But what if there is no replacement? Consider Context::scope() . Previously, its planned change for Shopware 6.8 was announced like this: /** * @deprecated tag:v6.8.0 - reason:new-optional-parameter - parameter $states will be added */ public function scope ( string $scope , \Closure $callback ) : mixed Static analysis sees @deprecated and reports every call to the method. However, the method is not going away. A new optional parameter will be added, so existing calls will continue to work without any changes. There is no alternative API to migrate to and no warning to resolve. In this situation, @deprecated is effectively crying wolf. With Shopware 6.7.14.0, we are changing how these planned API changes are communicated. Real deprecations remain deprecations. Other backward-compatibility changes are now described with dedicated, structured PHP attributes. The immediate result is less noise for extension developers. Additionally, the new attributes give us a foundation for preparing extensions for Shopware 6.8 - and future major releases - before those releases arrive. TL;DR Shopware now uses two different signals for two different purposes: @deprecated means that an API is obsolete and will be removed or replaced. Extension developers need to migrate away from it. BC-change attributes describe a future change to an API that remains available, such as a new parameter, a narrower return type, or a class becoming final. The attributes also distinguish between changes that affect code calling an API and changes that affect classes extending it. This means deprecation warnings become trustworthy and actionable again, while planned contract changes carry enough structured information for PHPStan, Rector, IDEs, and other tools to reason about them. We were asking @deprecated to do two different jobs The commonly understood

[!NOTE] Summary : Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) combine the reach of the web with the native experience and speed of mobile apps. In this guide, we walk step-by-step through building an installable, native-like mobile app with Angular, Ionic, and PWA capabilities—covering service workers, web manifests, iOS Safari requirements, and instant free deployment. Why Ionic Delivers That Authentic Native-Like Feel Building a web app for mobile is easy, but making it feel native is where most web applications fail. This is where Ionic shines: Native Touch Gestures : Ionic brings built-in mobile gestures—such as swipe-to-go-back, pull-to-refresh ( ion-refresher ), swipeable modals, and instant touch feedback—directly into the browser. Hardware-Accelerated Animations : Transitions between pages (iOS slide-in, Android material push) run on the Web Animations API at 60fps/120fps with zero jank. Adaptive Platform Styling : Ionic automatically adapts its UI controls—rendering iOS Human Interface Guidelines styling on Apple devices and Material Design on Android devices automatically from a single codebase. Combining Ionic's native UI controls with Angular's PWA capabilities gives your users a mobile app that looks, feels, and responds exactly like an app downloaded from the App Store. 1. Setting Up Angular PWA Support Angular CLI provides an official automated schematic to convert your project into a PWA: npx ng add @angular/pwa What this schematic generates: public/manifest.webmanifest : Configures app name, theme color, display mode ( standalone ), and app icons. ngsw-config.json : Defines caching strategies for static assets (index, JS, CSS) and dynamic lazy-loaded chunk bundles. src/main.ts : Registers provideServiceWorker() . public/icons/ : Generates a standard set of PWA icon assets ( 72x72 up to 512x512 ). 2. The manifest.webmanifest Asset Configuration When serving your application with ionic serve or building for production, ensure angular.json maps your static public/ dir

Notes from shipping a real-world PWA in Korea: Vite SSG is worth it. SPAs lose Korean SEO because Naver's crawler doesn't fully render JS. Leaflet > Mapbox for cost-sensitive projects. Free OSM tiles + zero cost. Firebase Hosting rewrites let you have deep URLs (/city/suwon) without a backend. KakaoTalk share is non-negotiable in Korea — 70%+ of social traffic. PWA install banner: don't auto-prompt, let the user discover. Project: https://gyeonggi-currency-map.web.app?ref=devto&utm_source=devto&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=multi-site-bot

This is a reprint from my tips blog. You can find the original article here: [ https://tips.ojapp.app/en/ios-android-pwa-goal-difference-3/ ] Android vs. iPhone: Different Goals for PWAs When people talk about PWAs, the explanation often sounds like this: Android supports PWAs. iPhone does not support PWAs very well. If you only look at the PWA specifications, this explanation is easy to understand. Android Chrome supports manifest.json, Service Worker, installation, notifications, shortcuts, and many other PWA features quite strongly. iPhone Safari, on the other hand, does not behave the same way as Android. But after testing PWAs on both iPhone and Android many times, I started to see the difference in another way. More accurately, Android and iPhone have different goals for PWAs. That is the biggest difference I noticed while testing repeatedly. Android tries to turn web pages into apps Android PWAs are clearly designed in the direction of making web pages feel closer to native apps. The idea is to take a website opened in the browser and move it toward a native-app-like experience. This direction is very strong on Android. That is why many PWA-related features are well supported. manifest.json Service Worker Push notifications Install Prompt Shortcuts theme_color background_color maskable icons display modes orientation Of course, it is not perfect. Manifest cache can be stubborn, multiple PWAs on the same domain can become confusing, and real-device testing can still create plenty of traps. Even so, when you build according to the PWA specification, Android usually responds in a fairly straightforward way. For example, if you set display: fullscreen , the app feels much more full-screen. theme_color is often reflected in the toolbar color. orientation also works quite strongly on Android. In other words, for Android, a PWA is an app made from the Web . iPhone starts from the experience of placing web pages on the home screen iPhone is different. Even before the

Most "Shopware vs Shopify" posts compare dashboards, app stores, and pricing tables. None of that matters to you until the day a client asks for something the platform won't let you build. Then the comparison stops being a feature grid and becomes a question about ceilings: how high can I go before the platform says no, and what happens when I hit it? That's the only axis I care about as a developer, so that's the one I'll argue on. Shopify is an outstanding product. It's also a closed SaaS that decides, on your behalf, where customization ends. Shopware is open source built on Symfony, which means the ceiling is "however far PHP and HTTP will take you." Below are the three places that difference actually bites, with code. Angle 1: The checkout is the wall This is the headline because it's where most agency developers first hit something they cannot do. For years the Shopify answer to "customize the checkout" was checkout.liquid . That era is over. Shopify deprecated checkout.liquid in favour of Checkout Extensibility . Plus stores had to migrate their Thank-you and Order-status pages by August 28, 2025 , and in January 2026 Shopify began auto-upgrading stores — wiping customizations built on additional scripts, script-tag apps, or checkout.liquid . Non-Plus stores have until August 26, 2026 , and legacy Shopify Scripts keep working only until June 30, 2026 . ( Shopify migration timeline ) The replacement, Checkout Extensibility, is genuinely more upgrade-safe. It's also a smaller box. You get Checkout UI Extensions (declarative components that render in slots Shopify defines) and Shopify Functions for backend logic — and that's the surface. You don't own the checkout template; you decorate the pieces Shopify exposes. Worth noting: full visual checkout customization (branding API, custom fields beyond the defaults, full UI extension power) is gated to Shopify Plus anyway. On Shopware, the checkout is a Twig template like every other page, and you override it the sam

This week, the first offline-first PWA went live on WebsitePublisher.ai . A travel blog that works without internet. Write posts on a plane, attach photos, and everything syncs the moment you reconnect. Service Worker, IndexedDB, sync queue — the full stack. The twist: it was built entirely through conversation with an AI assistant. No IDE, no terminal, no deploy pipeline. How that works WebsitePublisher.ai exposes 92 integrations as building blocks via MCP (Model Context Protocol). Any AI assistant — ChatGPT, Claude, Cursor, Windsurf, Copilot, Gemini, Grok, Mistral — connects to the same runtime and assembles these blocks into working applications. The offline-first PWA is one of those blocks. The AI doesn't generate a Service Worker from scratch. It activates a proven, tested building block and configures it for the use case. We call this wave coding — one deliberate wave of proven pieces, instead of 15 fragile vibe-coding attempts. What shipped recently Offline-first PWA building block — push/pull sync, conflict handling, IndexedDB storage, works on iOS 92 integrations (up from 78) — 45 built-in, 47 bring-your-own-key Integration stacks — pre-composed combinations: e-commerce (13 integrations), lead generation, B2B prospecting, booking, content/blog 9 AI platforms supported — all via MCP, no vendor lock-in 416 API endpoints across the platform ## The architecture in short AI assistant (any) → MCP → WebsitePublisher runtime ├── PAPI (pages + assets) ├── MAPI (structured data) ├── SAPI (forms + auth + sessions) ├── IAPI (integration proxy) ├── VAPI (encrypted vault) └── AAPI (scheduled AI agents) Credentials never touch the AI.
