Discussion on Front end. Web app vs Native App.

Cygwulf commented 5 years ago

Ok, so first thing, if we do this as a web app, it would be useful from multiple platforms, but would require all cloud based storage and data plan usage.
native app would allow for local storage when offline. Possibly reducing bandwith more than a litttle bit but I would anticipate sill needing central databases, if nothing else to download from or search other mfr's. Probably don't want to load EVERYTHING to the local device, only stuff they have/want.

for web app GIT does give a little storage space, but might be worth considering google cloud services too. Would have some free credit at first to see if things will work.

Is it possible to do a web app and then turn that into a mobile app later on?

I wonder if we could do some solution with Dropbox/user owned syncing. I know Battlescribe uses something similar
