The web has never been so productive. You can build and launch a whole new appin just a few hours. It’s crazy! You can build what huge teams with large budgets could only dream of a few years ago.

- Saving user data? Yepp.
- Works on mobile? Of course.
- What about an offline PWA? D’oh.
- Makes money? Yep got that too.
