Show HN: Build offline-first web apps in pure Go and HTML (swag.mills.io)

1 points by prologic ↗ HN
For a while, I've struggled to really get into the Mobile ecosystem. With the duopology that Google (Android) and Apple (iOS) hold on the mobile ecosystem, it's very difficult for developers to build and maintain decent mobile apps, especially when you're a solo developer and UI/UX isn't exactly you're fore anyway.

So I built (after some experiments with a friend @xuu) a little Go application framework that combines HTMX, DaisyUI/TailwindCSS and Service Workers with a little hack that works remarkably well that I've been able to build 3 quite nicely polished mobile apps (PWAs you install to your Home Screen).

If anyone is interested in their next mobile app built with web technologies and gives Swag a try, I'd appreicate feedback/ideas!

Oh very interesting! I'm gonna give this a try for an upcoming PoC that I want to build as a PWA.
Let me know how it goes! I have 3 quite successful aps built and in production using Swag now and it's pretty great DX (DevEx) and UX.
