Framework7: Creating Progressive Web Applications

[seme1]

This is a (multiple allowed):

• [] bug
• [X] enhancement
• [ ] feature-discussion (RFC)

It would be nice if Framework7 has a built-in/easy to implement way for building progressive web applications. Things such as instant load on launch, dynamic content loading of resources when needed an automatic content caching are all desired.

No feedback/updates on this ???

I don't think that F7 should provide PWA features since it's just a view layer framework.

PWA features like Service Workers and such are separate from F7.

Anyway, I'm just starting to dig into PWAs since Webkit support is coming. Maybe there's something that can put in.

@seme1 the PhoneGap team has created a number of templates that use F7/Vue to create mobile apps that can run on Android, iOS or as a PWA. Check out the split view one here:

We'd love some feedback.

@macdonst Is there an overview/list of all the templates (and other "stuff") that you guys created regarding PWAs? (Doesn't have to be F7 specific)

I am not sure what's available and what not.

and @devgeeks is documenting creating an app using one from scratch.
