Q&A
Background Services in Browsers
Is there an app life after closing a tab?
The user closes the tab in the browser, and your wonderful front-end application evaporates. But, what if you could leave some parts of it to work a little more for the benefit of improving UX? To respond to some events, to complete the started communication with the network, in general - to execute some code with the tab closed and even the browser.
We'll discuss interesting features of the APIs from the service workers family. Service Workers allow you to extend the life of the application so that you always have fresh data at hand, not be afraid of network problems, and be able to show notifications - all for the sake of a great user experience.
