That means it does call somewhere to register, correct? It just happens to call to you. Am I parsing that correctly?-wraith808 (September 12, 2019, 05:46 PM)
Clibu consists of a Browser App and a Cloud Server app which communicate back and forth. User registration is handled back on the server, so yes it calls our server.-nevf (September 12, 2019, 06:51 PM)
So even with the following feature from your prior post:This stores all data locally, and will have offline support with synchronization to other devices should you wish to use that.
You will still need to be connected to your servers to use the software?-wraith808 (September 12, 2019, 11:36 PM)
Apologies there is some confusion here. Clibu currently stores all data on the server, with some duplicated in the Browser.
The new app I'm developing, which I have written a bit about on the Clibu blog (along with live demos) and have mentioned here, stores all data locally. It will eventually be able to run entirely in the Browser, even without any Internet connection. In order to get the full benefits of automagic sync across devices, secure cloud backup etc. then connection to the server would be needed. This will be optional. I hope that clears things up.
