Presentation: "Building offline access to websites using HTML5"

Time: Thursday 14:05 - 15:05

Location: Stanford

Abstract: As web apps increase in popularity and capture more user information, users expect (or are selecting solutions that enable them) to be able to access that information when they are not connected to the internet. Learn how to use HTML5 technologies like IndexedDB, App Cache, DOM Storage and File API to enable the creation of web apps that cache data locally and access it without being online.
