Web only apps is not really my cup of tea. I
don't always work where there is good any any internet.
But you can run a custom web app on a local server, no internet needed.
Sure, basically when we did webapps we always had local installs for
testing etc. But if it is to work on a single laptop, it must not
reference any service on the web. So you must even be able to generate
it with other locations for default javascript scripts.
No, that's not what I meant. I meant an internal network with an
application specific server used by many clients.
I never wrote something like that, but I have some applications where
that could be useful.
Mostly testing, and when you have to. But it is not something I prefer,
more a hard way to do a simple thing
Sure, for me it's easier to develop a rich native client with lazarus,
but I wouldn't mind if, just for *some* specific cases, lazarus allowed
me to easily develop a full fledged web application, independent from
any external server. It seems that the infrastructure is mostly there
(fcl-web, pas2js, etc.) it "just"[*] needs some support from the ide
(that's what this poll was about, right?).
In order to see the full potential of web components, the IDE needs to be
web-enabled. This can be done through recreating the IDE as a web
application itself (VS Code, Atom, electron etc) or by allowing it to talk
to a browser (by embedding the browser, or invoking the browser somehow).
Both approaches are possible.
In that sense, this is indeed what the poll is about.
Michael.
