Progressive Web Apps: Escaping Tabs Without Losing Our Soul It happens on the web from time to time that powerful technologies come to exist without the benefit of marketing departments or slick packaging. They linger and grow at the peripheries, becoming old-hat to a tiny group while remaining nearly invisible to everyone else. Until someone names them. This may be the inevitable consequence of a standards-based process and unsynchronized browser releases. This eventual adding-up of new technologies changes how we build and deliver experiences. URLs and links as the core organizing system: if you can’t link to it, it isn’t part of the webMarkup and styling for accessibility, both to humans and search enginesUI Richness and system capabilities provided as additions to a functional coreFree to implement without permission or payment, which in practice means standards-based Major evolutions of the web must be compatible with it culturally as well as technically. These are just the ones that spring to mind offhand. But there is now another way.
Qué es el Responsive Web Design y por qué debería importarme aunque sea programador ¿Con qué dispositivo estás leyendo este artículo? Si lo piensas, dependiendo del momento del día y otros factores, seguramente podrías responder varias cosas diferentes: con mi smartphone táctil personal de 4.5 pulgadas, un tablet de 10'' con resolución de 2048x1536, el phablet de 6'' que me ha dado la empresa o mi monitor de 24'' con resolución Full-HD y usando un teclado y un ratón. Y es que hoy en día la información y las aplicaciones se consumen en infinidad de formatos, y una misma persona utiliza diversos dispositivos con capacidades de pantalla, factores de forma, tamaños y resoluciones diferentes, y usándolos de manera táctil o de la manera tradicional: con teclado y ratón. Hasta hace menos de una década las cosas eran mucho más sencillas. Si queríamos crear una aplicación o un sitio web "universal" tan solo teníamos que preocuparnos de unas cuantas variaciones. Este, aunque cueste creerlo ahora, era el método recomendado de hacer las cosas. ¿Cuál es entonces la solución?
Installable Web Apps with the Web App Manifest in Chrome for Android | Web | Google Developers For Web Apps to be successful, they need to work how the user would expect a native application to work. The ability for the developer to control how their web app is launched is just one part of UX that needs to be solved. The Manifest for Web applications is a simple JSON file that gives you, the developer, the ability to control how your app appears to the user in the areas that they would expect to see apps (for example the mobile home screen), direct what the user can launch and, more importantly, how they can launch it. In the future the manifest will give you even more control over your app, but right now we are just focusing on how your app can be launched. Deploying the manifest To integrate the manifest in your own site you just need to do two things: Create and deploy a manifest file.Add a link element from the pages in your app pointing to the manifest file. Creating the manifest You can call the manifest whatever you want. An example manifest is shown below. That's it. Games

Progressive Web App Checklist | Web | Google Developers Progressive Web Apps (PWA) are reliable, fast, and engaging, although there are many things that can take a PWA from a baseline to exemplary experience. To help teams create the best possible experiences we've put together this checklist which breaks down all the things we think it takes to be a Baseline PWA, and how to take that a step further with an Exemplary PWA by providing a more meaningful offline experience, reaching interactive even faster and taking care of many more important details. Baseline Progressive Web App Checklist The Lighthouse tool is able to automatically verify many items on the this list and may prove helpful in easily testing sites. Exemplary Progressive Web App Checklist Many of these checks must be performed manually, as they are not yet implemented in Lighthouse.

Qué son las Aplicaciones Web Progresivas o "Progressive Web Apps" Seguro que has escuchado mucho la palabra PWA, que se refiere a las Aplicaciones Web Progressivas o Progressive Web Apps en sus siglas en inglés. En este artículo vamos a aprender qué son las Aplicaciones Web Progresivas, qué problemas tratan de solucionar, en qué se basan para hacerlo, el soporte que existe actualmente en los sistemas y si merece la pena tanto revuelo. Las limitaciones de las aplicaciones web en los móviles Como sabemos, es posible crear aplicaciones para móviles utilizando desarrollo nativo o bien lo que se ha dado en llamar desarrollo híbrido. Este desarrollo híbrido consiste en crear aplicaciones web pensadas para trabajar en un móvil y luego convertirlas en aplicaciones nativas usando algún envoltorio como Apache Cordova/Phonegap. Lo cierto es que este concepto no funcionó y hubo pocas aplicaciones web que funcionasen de esta manera. Para lograr superar estas limitaciones nacieron muchas de las APIs de HTML5 y también las PWAs. ¿Qué es una Aplicación Web Progresiva?
Découvrir les service workers Il y a quelque temps, nous nous sommes confrontés à un nouveau besoin client : un mode d'édition offline dans une application mobile. Si plusieurs solutions s'offraient à nous, l’idée des service workers semblait prometteuse. Elle s'apparente à un proxy : dans cette configuration, le mode offline est rendu possible par un script chargé indépendamment de l’application cliente elle-même, et capable de réagir aux requêtes réseau. L'idée a été écartée en raison du rapport coût / bénéfice de ce mode développement pour le client, et d'une autre raison que vous découvrirez à la fin de ce billet. Néanmoins, nous avons poursuivi l'exploration lors de hack days, pour comprendre exactement les implications de cette nouvelle technologie. Ce billet est notre retour d'expérience sur un prototype très simple, un gestionnaire de playlist, qui fonctionne en mode offline. Le code des exemples à suivre est disponible sur Github. Nous allons maintenant créer le fichier du service worker: service-worker.js,

Beacon Technology: The Where, What, Who, How and Why Beacons have been generating buzz since 2013, when first introduced iBeacon technology. And while it may have appeared for a time that this new way of connecting with customers might be slow to catch on, today it’s catching fire. This year began with BI Intelligence reporting that beacons would be driving $44 billion in retail sales by 2016, up from $4 billion this year. Then last month came the big news that Apple and IBM have teamed up on a host of new apps incorporating analytics and iBeacons. And just last week, Ad Age reported on the impending reinvention of retail by digital technology, as the physical and digital worlds converge in stores. Sounds like exactly the right time for a quick primer on beacon technology and what it’s all about. Where: Or perhaps more accurately, where not Retail is probably the most often cited example of an industry employing beacons, with heavy hitters like Macy’s and Lord & Taylor deploying them in their stores.
