A) cool app, well executed!
B) this has further radicalized me into pure web development. What native features does this take advantage of that couldn’t be accomplished just as easily in typescript? I don’t have an android :(
- dagmawibabi 2y agoA. Thanks a whole lot B. Nothing that serious, it can definitely be a webapp. And currently working on doing that. I'd be happy if you'd like to contribute.
- bbor 2y agoFair enough, thanks for the polite response! I guess my overall gist was “we should outlaw apps” but I’ll save that for another thread ;). I hope to see this linked from Arxiv itself some day soon!
- dagmawibabi 2y agoThanks a whole lot! :)
- bulibuta 2y agoWhat about offline access to documents, bookmarks, summaries and other data you already downloaded? How would accessing this through a browser provide this reliably? Honest question.
- dagmawibabi 2y agoWell dowloading just stores it onto the PC so that's up to the user to manage the files, but bookmarks can be stored in the cache/localstorage
- bulibuta 2y agoBut it will no longer be managed by the webapp like your native app can, right?
