Coding ProjectMaintenanceNow
MaintenanceNow was a Progressive Web App (PWA) proof of concept that kept maintenance workflows available across devices, including offline use.
The app demonstrated how PWA features such as service workers, background sync, camera access, geolocation, and push notifications could support field-service workflows without requiring a native mobile app.
