Description
In this course, I'm gonna show you how to use Quasar Framework V1, Vue JS 2 and Firebase to create an amazing Progressive Web App (PWA).We're gonna create a gorgeous Instagram clone called Quasagram. In this app we can display a list of posts; each post has an image, location, caption and the date the image was taken.We can access the user's camera and take a photo, enter a caption, find the user's location and create a new post.It's gonna have a beautiful responsive design that adapts across Desktop & Mobile.We're gonna store all our data in a Firebase Cloud Firestore database.We'll store our photos in Firebase Storage.We're gonna create our own NodeJS & Express backend with several different endpoints for interacting with the database.We'll incorporate all of the 5 Core PWA features:Home Screen InstallationPrecachingCaching StrategiesBackground SyncPush NotificationsWe'll get the app working on iOS, Android & all the main desktop browsers, and it'll even fall back gracefully for older browsers like Internet Explorer.You'll also learn about Service Workers, Workbox, Firebase Cloud Firestore database, Firebase Storage, NodeJS & Express and much more.By the end of this course, you'll be able to create your own Progressive Web Apps using Vue JS, Quasar Framework, Firebase, NodeJS & Express.NOTE: This course is for Quasar V1 (with Vue 2). Quasar V2 (with Vue 3) is not covered in this course.
