lets talk about progressive webapps. i actually like them, because i'm trying to use my android phone without a google account.
i even have the feeling, that most pwas are just as good or sometimes even slightly better than the native app version.
What are they? Can you provide any example? Are they like electron apps but for android?
>>32253I've only seen them mentioned in the context of websites, because they're the kind of sites where back and forward navigation don't work. It means every function on the site itself is implemented as part of a webapp instead of a link, basically the same type of code that would be put into an electron app running in your browser.
>>32255Oh I fucking hate not being able to go backwards/forwards, they are usually super laggy and shitty
Nothing should be really done on the phone besides texting, photos, calls and notes (and maybe payments)
Hard pass
An SPA which routinely breaks the navigation and changes all the links into JavaScript, is not the same as a PWA. You can apparently do all the caching, notifications, and camera interactions from a traditional MPA. This in fact seems very useful to my project if I could ever get it off the ground.
I used to report all PWAs to the FCC for accessibility issues, but they've been totally defanged so I stop wasting my time. WRITE NORMAL FUCKING HTML YOU WEBKULAKS
