Really enjoyed this talk on the idea of "Local-first software"
https://youtube.com/watch?v=KrPsyr8Ig6M

"Software (& data) should be always available, collaborative (but private), responsive in the moment."

💡 a local-first strategy

1️⃣ write the software so it can run almost entirely offline
2️⃣ keep the authoritative copy of data on the user's device
3️⃣ use the cloud to augment the app with backup & live sync

I am also very passionate about the weather, and because of the love of tech, I obviously have my own weather station, my own website, self hosted, Raspberry Pi camera, Proxmox getting involved.

There is a full site at http://www.bordersweather.co.uk and the first attempts to start creating a #PWA at https://cam.bordersweather.co.uk

If nothing else, you can see the lovely Scottish Borders village I live in.

@indie1337 I only use Mastodon and #Pixelfed as far as fediverse apps are concerned, and the VAST majority of the time I use the PWAs for them. 100% of the time for Pixelfed. When I'm not in the #PWA for #Fosstodon, I've been using #Tusky.

Wow, https://elk.zone as a #PWA is a beast.

I used to block on it on iOS because #Firefox iOS doesn’t support PWA yet. But it’s actually totally fine to fire up #Safari just to save #Elk as a PWA. Makes difference once the PWA loads up.

#Mozilla's decision to get rid of #SSB / #PWA support has the most lingering effects. You've just created an entire instance where enthusiasts will complain about it day and night.

@hen To be fair, apps like VS Code Web (github.dev) perform nicely without SSB shenaniganry, so most of the time I just put website into my bookmarks and it works. Websites can request a persistent storage nowadays, they can do WebXR and many other things on #Firefox and #Chromium.

Heute zufällig herausgefunden, dass MS Teams für Linux nicht mehr gepflegt wird und man auf die Progressive Web App umsteigen soll. Funktioniert grundsätzlich aber klassische Anwendungen sind mit ja doch lieber.
Außerdem funktioniert der Spaß nicht mit Firefox (telefonieren geht nicht) sondern nur mit Chromium 🙄

#calckey on #mobile, the text is just way too small using the #PWA. However - check this out - I found if you switch to landscape mode and then back to portrait, the text size is larger (temporarily). Hopefully there's a better mobile version in the work --- or maybe I'm missing something?

I'm testing out Kimis (a Misskey client app on iOS) and while not nearly as full featured, it seems to work okay for basic scrolling and interacting with your timeline.

Auf die Schnelle geschaut... den einzigen Hinweis auf assoc-amazon.de finde ich als eine Art Zählpixel bei der Auslieferung der Werbeanzeige (die aber von celeo.de kommen sollte). Wobei ich mich tiefer in meinen eigenen Code vertiefen müßte, um die genauen Umstände zu ermitteln... ;-)

#JavaScript ist auf celeo.de mit Ausnahme eines #PWA-Schnipsels nicht vorhanden.

Dafür aber eine erste Anbindung ans #Fediverse... ;-)

This seems to me like this is a feature table built to push #Calckey as ""better than #Mastodon ... and other trendy names"" more than it is a fair assessment of features amongst different AP flavors. Firstly, the organization of columns for each platform is a mess. Both #Calckey and #Foundkey are #Misskey forks yet they are scattered with #Calckey at the front of the list. If it's at the front because it is more feature-complete, why then is it followed immediately by one so far down on that features list? Why with #Pixelfed being so drastically different, has it been selected for comparison to these others and not #PeerTube, #Lemmy, #WriteFreely, #Funkwhale, or anything else? Why leave #Friendica out of the lineup when it has a far more similar use-case to the others than #Pixelfed? On the list where it says "Mobile app", obviously this doesn't account for the #PWA that many of these have out of the box. The #PWA for #Mastadon #Misskey, #Calckey #Friendica, #Akkoma, #Pixelfed, #PeerTube, #Lemmy, and #diaspora all work brilliantly on #android, I would expect that #PWA being what it is, they'd work similarly well on #iOS.

Looked at #Twitter (sorry) and something changed with its #PWA (installed through Android #Firefox). The nav bar is now visible and covers up the bottom row of buttons making things less useful than ever.

Other #PWA-installed apps (including Masotodon) remain fine so I'm inclined to not blame #Firefox

I hear other things on that site are significantly worse than having a "progressive" web app that's regressing.

Oh Amazon, why have your #android music app download the music files only to not be able to display the app when your running offline?

Essentially the app is wrapper for a webpage, if your going to do that just make it a #pwa

Let me explain the problem. Lets say I have FireFox nightly as my default mobile browser. I install the PWA Stekkie app and it works. I create a couple of tasks.

Then I decide to remove Firefox nightly app because it crashes. What do you think would happen to my Stekkie tasks? The whole Stekkie app gone!

For a PWA the default mobile browser is used to present it, AND store data. Normal non-tech users will lose data over this and blame the app makers.

Am I missing something?

We created a Progressive Web App (#PWA) at work to learn how that goes, if it could be something for our main platform.

A PWA is basically a website that looks and behaves (somewhat) like an app.

It's a todo app where you only see the the task at the top of the stack:

https://apps.apple.com/nl/app/stekkie/id6447972185

Or just install it via the browser:
https://stekkie.herokuapp.com

There seems to be a fundamental problem with PWA's that I only just discovered and have not read about..

Alors, un outil #Microsoft qui marche sur #Windows seulement si vous vous faites passer pour utilisateur #Linux, c'est hautement réfléchi hein 😂

I've now got an account at @jo@calckey.social and getting the same as you all. I think there's a setting that's not allowing push notifications on the instance, so I've asked my admins at blahaj.zone where it works fine to let me know what it might be.
So if @ admin@calckey.social,
@atomicpoet@calckey.social, or @kainoa@calckey.social know what that setting is, I'd suggest they change it. Once it's working I'll finish up writing the #Calckey #iOS #PWA How To I'm putting together here.

Nowadays, many tutorials show you how to make a PWA the simple way. IMO it's a bad thing that leads to most PWAs being nothing more than Web bookmarks and making users think this technology is useless.

In this article, I'll show how to make a PWA that:

- can be installed on your phone/computer as if it was a native application
- can be used both online and offline

Gerade mal @trunksapp für #Mastodon auf #Android und im #Browser angeguckt. Sieht nicht schlecht aus und hat ein paar interessante Funktionen, die ich noch nie gesehen hab (Anzeige nur von Posts, Boosts oder Antworten; Anzeige nur von noch nicht gesehenen Posts).
@elk bleibt aber noch Favorit, knapp vor @phanpy (beide mobil als #PWA ). Fürs Posten von Artikeln aber ganz klar @apps .
Und ihr? Was muss man ausprobieren?
#mastotips #mastotip

I've been trying to implement the #shareTarget API in my #PWA for years now and I'm *so close* to being able to accept files from a share (at least from #Chrome #Android) that I can *taste* it!!!

In manifest.json I set my `method` to "POST" and `enctype` to "multipart/form-data", but when I share to my app it just GETs the page with no POST or even querystring params.

I could try disabling the GET response and see what happens...

#rubberDucky #enhance #javaScript #progressiveWebApps

@gwaihir@calckey.social @Dan@calckey.social @admin@calckey.social If you didn't get a permissions pop-up from iOS while using the PWA you may need to check your permissions in #iOS Settings. Find the name of your #PWA app (mine's called Blahaj Zone, after the instance I'm on) in the app list. You may then need to come back to the PWA and enable push notifications in Settings> Notifications. Let me know how you go. #Calckey

Find the PWA app in your iOS settings. Mine's named after my instance.
You'll then see the notifications setting with current setting status
Toggle to allow notifications, and customise to your liking.

Push #notifications now available for #Calckey #iOS users using the #PWA.
If you update to iOS 16.4 and "add to home screen", that version (called a PWA) will have full notifications and background/offline support!

For those with the PWA already added, you may need to go into
Settings> Notifications> and enable push notifications.

#fediapps #apple #app #apps

Screenshot from my #Calckey #iOS #PWA settings showing push notifications have been enabled.

@noelle @jlogancarey@mastodon.art @noelle@example.com In #Android, there is the #Milktea app. It works for #Calckey, but there are a feature here and there that doesn't work. (Since the app was made for #Misskey.)

Another option is to turn the Calckey instance into a
#PWA / #Webapp. Not sure in iOS, but in Android you can use Firefox and any Chromium-based browsers (Edge, Chrome, Vivaldi, Whale), look for an option to save the website as a webapp or PWA. Sometimes referred to as “save to desktop”.

It should create an icon, then when you open that icon, the site will load as if it is an independent app.

Hi! I have a question about #Firefox. I've installed by first #ProgressiveWebApp though Firefox for Android and I am curious if the app gets filtered through my installed extensions.

i.e. Will #uBlock block all the ads?

It's my first time using a #PWA and I used to go to this site's app, so I don't know what the mobile site looks like.

Thanks!

Why do you install a #Mastodon #mobileapp ?

I have tried multiple Mastodon #apps on Android phones and I have come to the conclusion that using the Mastodon progressive web app (#pwa ) is better and more feature rich than most apps.

To install the Mastodon PWA on your phone, simply open your preferred instance in Chrome or Edge for Android. Once loaded, tap the three dots menu button in the browser and choose “Install app.” This will add a Mastodon icon to your home screen and app drawer.

@bradwilson @khalidabuhakmeh @mastonaut @elk Its a bit weird, after installing the @elk #PWA and then launch it, it also always launches chrome.
Also #Chrome asked be whether I want to enable notification but so far I haven't got one showing up on my desktop.

A new version of #madblog is available! 🎉You can either clone it from here https://git.platypush.tech/blacklight/madblog or install it via `pip install madblog`.

It now comes with #PWA support out of the box - manually creating a `manifest.json` is no longer required. So your own blog or web notebook can easily be installed as a PWA with zero additional configuration - yay!

For those who aren't familiar with it, madblog is a platform I developed to have a simple but good-looking blog with zero JS that is *really* Markdown-based.

When I say Markdown-based, I usually don't mean "it has a WYSIWYG editor that supports Markdown and will store your data on a database behind your back".

No, I really mean "you create your directory with Markdown files, run madblog to use it as a content directory, and nothing else is required".

If your blog pages are stored as Markdown files in a git repo, then running your blog somewhere is as simple as cloning the repo, creating a simple `config.yaml` in it, and running `madblog blog-dir`.

It currently powers both my blogs (https://blog.platypush.tech and https://blog.fabiomanganiello.com).

Ideas and feedback are welcome!

#elk toimii taas hyvin #android:issa kun hieman kikkailee. Eli #firefox nightly asentaa sen oikein #PWA sovellukseksi. Silloin muuten vaivaava offset bugi ei iske sormen kohdistukseen. Jostain syystä normi firefox ei lisännyt PWA:ta. Näin taas #mastodon on käytettävä. Hetken oli kamala kun ei ollu säikeet käytössä, ja muutenkin niin kälyiset käyttöliittymät. Ymmärrän kyllä uusia tulokkaita, huono käyttökokemus oletuksena.

What's confusing to me is the "challenge" part. Apparently the server needs to provide it, but when? Should I send it along with every page I want to make authenticated form posts from? Or is this something I should do once, in a login form, and then send to the server to persist in a database?

Will this work for my #PWA #shareTarget posts? 🤔

[4am reflexion about #PWA icons] is it possible to invalidate the app icon from an added at home PWA?
Would it be possible by changing icons urls in the manifest file and invalidate it? Would that update the app icon on the go?

If you need to create product photos and mockups of iPhone etc. for product presentations (think App Store screenshots), https://shots.so/ is nice. It even installs as a #PWA (”Chrome app”).
