counterpoint:
if you can’t handle me offline, then you don’t deserve me extremely online

@zachleat I guess you're probably 50% tongue in cheek here, but I'd venture to ask nonetheless:
I'd make a difference between web sites (content) and web apps; the former is for consumption on display of the page and is then usually (hopefully) cached by the browser and/or retrieved by tools like pocket, wallabag etc., the latter needs to handle actions as an offline feature to be updated when it has the chance to do so.@accessiblestef I think this one was probably 80 or 90% tongue-in-cheek. I do think offline sites are valuable but to me it’s a “code smell”-esque issue when we have to bifurcate entire properties into sites versus apps for technical reasons. I think that bifurcation should be done at the smaller component/module/design block level
@zachleat … and I do agree :)
@accessiblestef agreement high five! 🙏🏻
@zachleat hehe 😁
