Offline Homebrewing

Last month Jeremy demo’d his Going Offline{:target="_blank"} Event Apart talk during a working lunch.

It was a practical tour of enhancing your site to a progressive web app. I was inspired.

Some of my feedback was “I feel like I can leave this room and do that!”. So instead of paying lip service, I decided to follow through.

I followed Jeremy’s post on adding a service workers{:target="_blank"} to a website site. I added his minimal-serviceworker.js{:target="_blank"} script and hey presto… it worked!

Fast forward a few weeks and I’m sitting at Clearleft HQ at the weekly Brighton Homebrew Website Club{:target="_blank"} adding an offline web page.

Thanks to Jeremy for helping my with the code, and to everyone for the great company{:target="_blank"}.

Here’s to the next one! 🍻️
