Connectivity should not decide whether work can continue
Offline-first is more than saving a few screens locally. It requires clear decisions about ownership of data, local state, synchronization, conflicts and user feedback.
We design offline behavior around the workflow so users can understand what is saved, what is pending and what happens when the connection returns.
Key considerations
- Local persistence.
- Synchronization boundaries.
- Retry and recovery.
- Conflict handling.
- Media and attachment strategy.
- Authentication expiry.
- Clear pending/synced states.
- Device storage constraints.
