Show Notes

5:40 - Banners and popups

  • Interfere
  • Static
  • Dismissible
  • Cookie/localstorage
  • When that popup is updated, it should show again. Maybe use a hash of the content? Or length? Something that resets itself every time the content is updated.
  • Private client-side-only PWAs are hard

14:35 - Good styling

  • What happens if they add an image?
  • Do they have access to the branded fonts and colors in their WYSIWYG?
  • Can you revoke 100px red Times New Roman?

18:32 - Page alerts

  • Yellow, green, red
  • Alerts on existing pages

21:08 - New pages

  • Is there a good template for new pages?
  • Can they easily set the slug?
  • Can they add it to the nav?

23:52 - Google’s “Hours of Operation”

25:43 - Other

34:38 - Deployment

  • Detail how to deploy everything
  • It might have been years and the CSS will only compile on Node 6 and Gulp 3
  • Do any caches need clearing?
  • Does the CSS need to be cache busted?
