AppWorks Offline Support

spaled

Do we have offline support in AppWorks? If not when is it likely expected. Is there a way we could get access to a preview/early bits?

AppWorks Apps are HTML5/JavaScript/CSS apps, so they can utilize offline storage. In principle, you could package up an entire offline web site as an AppWorks App and distribute it through the AppWorks Gateway.

Is there anything in specific that you are looking for?

"they can utilize offline storage"
Hi Werner -

In AppWorks are there any utilities that the Apps can use? From your response above does the Apps have to enable/code the offline support themselves?

Thanks
Raj

The next patch release for AppWorks will include the ability to use apps while offline. For offline storage within an app I would recommend using standard HTML5 storage.

We'll be looking into possibly providing a custom library for encrypted offline storage but this wouldn't be introduced until the next major release.
