jcastrohey mhall11914:25
jcastrohave you ever tried a progressive web app on ubuntu touch?14:25
mhall119progressive?14:49
mhall119or responsive14:49
mhall119jcastro: ^^ ?14:51
jcastroprogressive14:51
jcastroit's like the thing the chrome guys are pushing, native-looking apps that can make a shortcut on your homescreen14:51
jcastrohere's an example: https://hackerwebapp.com/14:51
jcastrothe G+ website can do a similar thing14:51
mhall119jcastro: is it just a website wrapped in an android webview?14:52
mhall119jcastro: https://www.dropbox.com/s/9epyeidpxln2gig/screenshot20160331_105936295.png?dl=015:01
jcastroman, awesome15:01
jcastrothat's what I was hoping for15:02
jcastrohttps://developers.google.com/web/progressive-web-apps?hl=en15:02
jcastroso like, they have push notifications, offline support, etc.15:02
jcastroand I was like "ok whatever"15:02
jcastrobut they're actually pretty awesome15:02
mhall119jcastro: made that in 2 minutes on https://developer.ubuntu.com/webapp-generator/15:03
mhall119they have offline support, not notifications yet but that'sbeing worked ok15:03
mhall119in theory the browser could generate these for local use only15:04
jcastroso if we do the hackerweb through this process it should Just Work right?15:05
mhall119yup, I put in the URL, icon and name, and it gave me a .click package15:06
jcastrook let's pretend this was my app15:07
jcastronevermind, I see the publish link instructions, heh15:07
jcastrospoke too soon15:07
mhall119I've already put it in the store15:08
* popey rejects it15:08
* mhall119 blames popey 15:08
popeyit's waiting for you to publish15:10
mhall119just hit the button15:10
popey(personally I think this is the wrong thing to do)15:10
popeyworks nicely on the device15:11
mhall119jcastro: https://www.dropbox.com/s/p3miel1n76o0ug2/screenshot20160331_111148200.png?dl=015:12
mhall119popey: it's a nice webapp15:13
popeyit should be local, in a www/15:13
popeybecause you are now beholden to him and his whims15:13
popey(which is why I detest webapps)15:13
mhall119it would be nice if it opened external links using the slide-up webview like FB does, instead of calling out ot the browser15:17
mhall119davidcalle: ^^ is that something we can add to the webapp generator?15:17
popeybah "Can not create a new package with name hackerweb, multiple origins for hackerweb are not allowed"15:26
popeyso it looks like even clicks can't have the same app name now15:26
popeymhall119: squatter! :)15:26
mhall119I'll sell it to you15:28
mhall119$1,000,00015:28
mhall119popey: if you have a better (running locally) version of HackerWeb, I will delete mine to freeup the namespace15:37
popeyyou're too kind15:38
popeyI've renamed mine15:38
davidcallemhall119: opening links in the same view?16:13
davidcallemhall119: by default, the generator restricts you webapp to the same domain, but yeah, could be turned into a feature choice.16:14
mhall119davidcalle: so with the facebook of G+ apps, if I click a link that goes to another domain, it opens it up within the webapp, but it slides a new page onto the stack to show it16:15
popey\o/ hackerweb local app in the store16:19
popeybit big :)16:19
popeyI should trim it a touch16:19
mhall119how big?16:22
popey9.8M :)16:22
mhall119oh, yeah, that's big16:22
davidcallemhall119: yeah, I have that on Desktop for some custom webapps I've made for myself as well. I see what you mean, I'll add it.16:27
* davidcalle drives home, see you tomorrow o/16:28
mhall119davidcalle: I guess we're not having out call then?16:32
dholbachall right my friends - I call it a day17:32
davidcallemhall119: oh sorry! The meeting distracted me from it19:29
davidcallemhall119: do you want to do it now?19:32
