Building Progressive Web Apps with React

Talkat NDC Porto 2019 · 2019-02-26..03-01· [react, pwa]

A small React app (spun up with create-react-app) serves the NDC Porto agenda, fetches day0/day1 JSON with Axios, and adds a service worker that first uses service worker cache-only vs network-first strategies so the site loads and navigates while offline. Chrome DevTools and a Lighthouse audit show performance jumping from ~78 to 98 after npm run build and minification; PWA score starts at ~42. Manifest enables Add to Home Screen; push notifications are implemented with VAPID but the live demo is flaky.
