• Don't upload your PWA to the app stores

  I built Progressier to provide developers with the best possible browser-based PWA installation experience. And I can say, it's nearly as good as Google/Apple's app store installation experience. - Source: dev.to / 5 months ago

• How to fix iOS push subscriptions getting terminated after 3 notifications

  That's it for me! Hopefully, now you know how to get around push subscriptions being canceled after 3 push notifications. If you have any questions, feel free to contact me here. - Source: dev.to / 12 months ago

• Web push notifications coming to iOS this year

  When I made Progressier compatible with the desktop Safari update from last October, I had to rewrite a thing or two to put the request for permission inside a click event listener. Doesn't work otherwise. I'd be willing to bet mobile Safari will have the same requirement. Source: over 1 year ago

• Show HN: I made an indie app store alternative with a twist

  The twist is that although it does (part of) the job of an app store, it's not (nor aims to be) an app store. It's a script you add to your existing web app that makes it "self-distributing". Check it out: https://progressier.com. Under the hood, it leverages the concept of "PWA", but it goes further: 1. It creates an installation page for your app that looks like an app store listing. Demo example:... - Source: Hacker News / almost 2 years ago

• Does calling the image URL cost anything?

  With something like Progressier, you can set up a caching strategy that essentially says "cache all images located on firebase.whatever-the-url-is.com and never request it from the network after that". It would take approximately 2 minutes to set up -- no code required. Source: about 2 years ago

• Bare Metal Rust in Android

  > At least with a language like Go, it somewhat makes sense, and has been attempted: https://gioui.org/ Gio UI is an immediate-mode UI, and immediate-mode UIs map very nicely to Rust. Egui is quite easy to use. https://www.egui.rs/. - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Bare Metal Rust in Android

  I didn't bash Java/Kotlin. In fact, I have written few android apps in Kotlin, Java and I also have fiddled with Jetpack compose, JNI and NDK (I have also played with mpv's Opengl/Vulkan's rendering on Android if that matters to you). I don't want to share the projects of mine because I don't want to reveal my identity. > https://gioui.org/ I know that tailscale's android application is written in it but I don't... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• Bare Metal Rust in Android

  Tell me you've never done any Android development, without telling me... This is such a low-effort "take" without any effort to justify _why_ you'd want something like this. There's a high amount of impedance mismatch trying to write GUIs in a non-GC language like Rust which _has_ to run on what's essentially a Java VM (ART). At least with a language like Go, it somewhat makes sense, and has been attempted:... - Source: Hacker News / 8 months ago

• htmx/Go experiences?

  I am building the same but with golang and https://gioui.org/. Source: 11 months ago

• net/http extension to exchange structs

  I've been writing a WASM app using gio & I found myself wanting for a simplified web library. In addition I drew some inspiration from leptos server functions. A friend of mine mentioned it has some similarities with next.js. Source: 11 months ago
