A presentation about using service workers to provide push notification and offline capabilities in React apps

View the Service Worker Presentation

Demo

I made a demo app that shows one potential approach for implementing push notifications via a service worker in a React app. It uses Firebase Cloud Messaging, a Firebase Function, and a Firebase Firestore to implement the push notifications. It's no longer setup locally (to avoid cloud charges), but you can view the code for the app and/or setup the demo in your own environment.

Running the Presentation Locally

To run this slide deck:

1. Run npm install to install the dependencies
2. Run npm start on the command line in the root folder where the code is stored
3. Go to http://localhost:3000 in your browser
