WEB COMPONENTS

elements.polymer-project.org

1. Make it responsive

This and more on polymerlabs.github.io/app-layout/

2. Make it app-like

3. Make it re-engageable

Push notifications are great. But let the user choose.

4. Make it connectivity independent

Caching strategies:

>> fatest;

>> networkFirst;

>> networkOnly;

5. Make it load fast

“74% of mobile users won’t wait longer that 5 seconds for a page to load.”

Mobile Application Testing & Performance Analysis

6. Make it installable
