Install as a PWA
DBModeler can be installed as a Progressive Web App so the editor feels closer to a desktop tool while still running from the browser stack.
What installing as a PWA gives you
Section titled “What installing as a PWA gives you”PWA install can improve day-to-day use by giving you:
- a dedicated app window
- easier relaunch from the OS or browser app list
- better continuity for local editor workflows
How to install
Section titled “How to install”Look for the install prompt or install button exposed by the running browser.
The exact browser UI differs, but the DBModeler flow is designed to surface the capability when installation is available.
What works offline
Section titled “What works offline”The editor can support offline-friendly behavior for the core application shell and local modeling workflow.
However, provider-backed features still need network access, including:
- cloud sync
- Git operations
- OAuth-dependent provider flows
When PWA install is most useful
Section titled “When PWA install is most useful”PWA install is a strong fit when you mostly:
- work on local projects
- switch into the editor repeatedly during the day
- want DBModeler to behave more like a dedicated tool than a temporary tab
Recommendation
Section titled “Recommendation”Install the PWA if DBModeler is part of your daily schema workflow, but treat connectivity-sensitive features as online-first even inside the installed app.
