hackmd.io/new with offline support?

[orschiro]

Dear all,

I am just wondering whether we could implement offline support for hackmd.io/new?

This would be great to create a new note quickly even while being offline. :-)

Yours,

Robert

Thanks @orschiro
Use HackMD in offline environment is a cool feature.
But we practically don't have not enough time and resource to do this.
PR welcome!

I would love to say I could help with a pull request but unfortunately I cannot.

Hopefully someone else can contribute though!

I recently read some resources around "PWA-ifying" web apps, perhaps it could be a joint effort. That would indeed make HackMD a powerful contender to things like StackEdit and Atom w/ Markdown Panes.

@aflashyrhetoric,

I know StackEdit but what is “Atom w/ Markdown Panes”?

[coderofsalvation]

I, and many chromebook users would definately want this.
We could write some ajax-middleware which caches stuff.

I believe there is some resonance here, so I removed the vote-wanted label. If anyone wants to work on this: feel free to contribute a pull request!

this is also related to PR #673 - once that endpoint supports adding content, one could just use that as soon as the browser comes online.

This won't make it until 2.0. The entire frontend works synchronous with the backend (we only give a little gitter) to keep everything manageable and conflict-free.

I'll close this for now, but don't worry, we'll keep offline support in mind :)
