E-012 The zero intruption theory [Offline Storage and Databases]

Offline Storage and Databases

In this sleepy little episode Jon pines to be back in his 20's when he pulls an all-nighter and gets so much done.  We cover Storing JSON objects in AsyncStorage, different methods of hydration, why it's important to recognize the size of an open source community when choosing a package and/or software solution, and wrap it up with a plea to tweet us, dammit!
