Google Gears – Browser Extension to Enable Offline Apps

Uncategorized Add comments

Google have released the first beta of their open source browser extension to allow developers to create offline web applications.

The extension consists 3 modules:

  1. LocalServer, which acts as an application server supporting HTML, Javascript and more.
  2. A local relational database engine
  3. WorkerPool, which is a cool way of running Javascript in the background (thread) and therefore not blocking the page.

    Discovered this webpage whilst I was looking for some information for our webpage, clearly this may not be all releative however its surprising how you can reach a website accidentally and discover oneself looking at something totally different but just as beneficial. I am inclined to get distracted a too often this way.
