Jasonette seems awesome from what I'm reading (I'm ignoring webcontainer)!

Does it work offline by default? Is the JSON app cached and updated again when the user is online?

What is preventing you from writing an HTML version of Jasonette, so apps written for Jasonette Native can run on a browser?

Thanks!

It's online default, hence the subtitle "Native app over HTTP". Think of it like a web browser for building native apps. Instead of HTML you use JSON markup.

That said, it also allows various ways of implementing offline http://docs.jasonette.com/local/

Nothing! Stay in touch to hear more! :D

In the end, is it possible to make a dumb version of an app that includes both the JSON and the Jasonette client? I guess most non-tech-savvy people will prefer something like that.
