I'm offline, cool! What now?
summary
Explains concrete offline-first solutions: use CouchDB + PouchDB replication to store documents locally, handle merge conflicts automatically, and decouple sync so data survives power loss; prefer service worker over appcache for cache control; encrypt local docs with Crypt‑pouch and authenticate with JSON Web Tokens for offline logins. Gives tested deployments: an Ebola response system that kept patient records and reduced outbreaks, a bus-router Bluetooth sync used in remote towns, and a phone‑ring binary messenger from the Mongol rally that actually worked.
