Background Sync

[StanleyMasinde]

Description:
Enable the generation of code to integrate Background Sync into the PWA, allowing the app to automatically sync data when the user regains connectivity.

Deliverables:

• Automatically generate the service worker code to handle background sync events.
• Implement the logic to define tasks that should be synced in the background, such as:
  • Offline form submissions.
  • Queued API requests.
• Allow developers to configure background sync intervals and conditions for syncing data (e.g., when network becomes available).
• Ensure proper error handling for failed sync attempts and retries.
• Provide fallback options for browsers that do not support Background Sync, with clear instructions on how to handle these cases.
• Generate a helper script or API for managing the sync state (e.g., checking sync status, retrying failed sync).
• Include automatic registration of background sync tasks during app installation.
• Provide documentation on how to configure and modify the background sync tasks for specific use cases.
• Allow testing of background sync in different network conditions (offline, low connectivity, etc.).
• Ensure the background sync process is transparent to the user, with proper feedback when sync is complete or fails.
