A strange take. If you’re going to be pedantic you might as well be correct - server less would mean literally that, no server required, e.g. Apple Notes or Microsoft Word 2010 and more similar to the end of your comment (a solid pod isn't serverless either btw) and CRDT is totally irrelevant here - you could use CRDTs and still not have an offline application.
A GitHub page is in no way serverless. It’s totally inaccessible without internet and requires literally a remote server to function. Ironically GitHub page is more similar to the marketing definition of serverless.
- Joeri 3y agoIf we’re going to be pedantic, let me point out that for a pwa a connection to the server is only required for initial install and successive data synchronization, so the operation of the web app I described is indeed literally serverless outside of those edge cases.

Should be. But I'm yet to see a PWA like that; all I've been victim of experiencing had all meaningful operations involve a round-trip through the cloud.
