What for Wiki

I spoke recently with friends about alternatives for writing and distributing applications written in Javascript, specifically those coded as progressive web applications, PWAs. I have pondered what further advice I might offer but I have trouble distinguishing various approaches without understanding the nature of your ambitions.

I assembled a list of possibilities thinking they might choose a few or offer their own in an email reply. I wasn't proposing wiki but I've always considered ordering lists a strong feature of how this wiki works.

want

• simple software distribution to users

• an application-like experience when offline

keep

• code or library sharing with others

• ease in creating vivid data visualizations

• continuous data collection from feeds or users

whatever

• ease of creating forms and similar user-interfaces

• high data throughput for mega or gigabytes

• low latency for updating or exploring alternatives

• expressive coding of repetitive tasks

• expressive coding of complex algorithms

• ability to recruit coders as volunteers or employees

• remain current with evolving trends

.

Rearrange or add to this list to suggest how we should focus our attention over the coming months.
