Description

Creating a quick and low-code PowerApps app that allows users to work offline on mobile device and to sync data to server or cloud when WiFi is available again sounds like a great idea. However, developing such app to support offline capability can be challenging, especially when dealing with limited local cache and large data. I've developed apps that work mainly offline, seen, and resolved many pain points. I've helped citizen developers resolving many issues during their development.
