PWA

Do you guys think deploying a marimo notebook as a progressive webapp would be feasible?

What are the benefits you see? I have a branch out for this, but I didnt actually know what value it was adding exactly

pet project. Hmm part of the message got deleted. I'm working on a pet project to capture a picture and read back the text from my son. I was hoping to build a PWA to run on his mobile. I'm super interested in marimo so I was hoping it could be a fit. But also asking the browser to take a picture might be a stretch from the marimo cell?

I think it can already run on his mobile - PWA could allow for offline support, but for wasm we load packages from pypi which would need internet as some point. it wouldnt be hard for a marimo app to take a photo. we have an upload element mo.ui.file that you can upload a photo to. we could also add mo.ui.webcam to access the browser's webcam (upon giving permissions)

So maybe I start with uploading a picture and if I don't get stuck elsewhere then I look whether I can add mo.ui.webcam as a source. Thanks for the quick answer! Good luck with marimo
