DrupalCon New Orleans 2016: Offline-capable, decoupled Drupal 8 with React.js and React Native

This talk explores the possibilities that arise when a content management system (CMS) is decoupled. The speaker discusses the development of a fully offline-capable website utilizing React.js, PouchDB, and RELAXed, alongside a native iOS app created with React Native. Attendees will learn how users can download the entire website for offline access, leveraging opportunistic syncing to update content when an internet connection is available, which is beneficial for contexts like intranets and travel. The session includes a demonstration of the app, an introduction to the open-source framework, and insights on key technologies involved such as React.js, Redux, and PouchDB. By the end, listeners should feel equipped to create their own offline-capable CMS applications using the framework presented. Basic knowledge of JavaScript and Drupal 8 is assumed.
