Hi David,

Hello Paolo,

A webapp requires an internet connection. The app can avoid some server's calls by use the local storage, but, it's requires internet connection in order to download the main app's files, for example. So, in principle it's not possible to have a webapp completely "offline".

You can compile the app with Apache Cordova and therefore get an APK, for example, to be running in the Android platform. This app / APK no need internet connection... except if the app requires it to retrieve some information or stuff.
