Angular meets Project Fugu: Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau (Hands-on)

Progressive Web Apps sind ein plattformübergreifend einsetzbares Anwendungsmodell auf Web-Basis. Dank Project Fugu, einer Initiative der Chrome-Contributors Google, Microsoft und Intel, wird das Web um noch mächtigere Features erweitert. Damit können Entwickler endlich auch Produktivitäts-Apps wie Büro- und Bearbeitungsprogramme oder IDEs sinnvoll ins Web bringen. In diesem Workshop zeigt Ihnen Christian Liebel von Thinktecture, wie Sie mit Angular Produktivitätsapps auf Desktopniveau entwickeln können – Zugriff auf das Dateisystem und die Zwischenablage sowie Dateizuordnungen inklusive. Und Sie können mitentwickeln: Bitte bringen Sie dazu Ihr Notebook (ohne Corporate-Proxys/Unternehmensrichtlinien) mit installiertem Google Chrome Canary, Node.js und Microsoft Visual Studio Code mit.

12. Canvas – Plain bitmap for the web – Cross-platform, hardware- accelerated graphics operations – Supports different contexts (2D, 3D: WebGL, WebGL 2.0) – Supported on all evergreen browsers and on IE 9+ Paint Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
13. Canvas Add a canvas element to app.component.html (line 5): <canvas #canvas width="600" height="480"></canvas> Query the canvas element in app.component.ts (line 10): @ViewChild('canvas') canvas: ElementRef<HTMLCanvasElement>; context: CanvasRenderingContext2D; Paint EX #1 Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
14. Canvas 2D Context fillRect(x, y, width, height) strokeRect(x, y, width, height) beginPath() moveTo(x, y) lineTo(x, y) fill() stroke() Paint Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
15. Canvas 2D Context Get the 2D context and prepare the canvas in app.component.ts in the method ngAfterViewInit(): const canvas = this.canvas.nativeElement; const ctx = this.context = canvas.getContext('2d'); ctx.fillStyle = 'white'; ctx.fillRect(0, 0, canvas.width, canvas.height); ctx.fillStyle = 'black'; Paint EX #2 Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
16. Low-latency Rendering Paint Web pages need to synchronize with the DOM on graphics updates causing latencies that can make drawing difficult Low-latency rendering skips syncing with the DOM with can lead to a more natural experience Supported on Chrome (Chrome OS and Windows only) Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
17. Low-latency Rendering Opt-in to low-latency rendering (app.component.ts): const ctx = this.context = canvas.getContext('2d', { desynchronized: true }); Paint EX #3 Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
18. Pointer Events Paint Users nowadays use different input methods, cross-platform apps should cover all of them Pointer Events offer an abstract interface to catch all input methods (pointerdown, pointermove, pointerup) event.offsetX/event.offsetY contain the pointer’s position relative to the listener Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
19. Pointer Events Add event listeners (app.component.html and app.component.ts): <canvas #canvas width="600" height="480" (pointerdown)="onPointerDown($event)" (pointermove)="onPointerMove(canvas, $event)" (pointerup)="onPointerUp()"></canvas> onPointerMove(canvas: HTMLCanvasElement, event: PointerEvent): void { this.context.fillRect(~~event.offsetX, ~~event.offsetY, 2, 2); } Paint EX #4 Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
20. Bresenham Line Algorithm The user may move faster than the input can be processed For this case, we need to remember the previous point and interpolate the points in between The Bresenham line algorithm calculates the missing pixels between two given points Paint Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
21. Bresenham Line Algorithm Update the method onPointerMove() in app.component.ts: if (this.previousPoint) { const currentPoint = {x: Math.floor(event.offsetX), y: Math.floor(event.offsetY)}; const points = this.paintService.bresenhamLine(this.previousPoint.x, this.previousPoint.y, currentPoint.x, currentPoint.y); for (const {x, y} of points) { this.context.fillRect(x, y, 2, 2); this.previousPoint = currentPoint; } } Paint EX #5 Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
22. Color Selection For this demo, we will only implement the brush tool. However, we want to bring in some color. A simple method to implement a color selection is to use the HTML color-type input element that shows the native color picker: <input type="color"> Paint Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
23. Color Selection 1. In app.component.html, add the following input to the <nav> node: <input type="color" (change)="colorChange($event)"> 2. In app.component.ts, add the following code in the method colorChange(): this.context.fillStyle = $event.target.value; Paint EX #6 Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu

66. Summary - Project Fugu helps the web to become more and more capable - Project Fugu APIs could bring many more app experiences to the web (IDEs, productivity apps, etc.) - But: Web is threatened by alternative approaches and platforms, support for modern Web API varies from platform to platform - You can make a difference! - File bugs in browser engine bugtrackers - File Fugu requests: https://goo.gle/new-fugu-request Capabilities Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu

68. Overview Use available interfaces and functions of a system (opposite of Graceful Degradation) Users with modern, feature-rich browsers get a better experience Apps are available on older browsers, but with limited functionality Concept: Browser feature support should grow over time—thereby more users can enjoy an increasing number of features Progressive Enhancement Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
69. Overview if ('serviceWorker' in navigator) { navigator.serviceWorker.register(…) .then(() => /* … */); } In JavaScript: check whether an API/feature is available. If yes—use it! Otherwise: 1. Disable the functionality 2. Fall back to an alternative API (if available) Progressive Enhancement Produktivitäts-PWAs auf Desktopniveau Angular meets Project Fugu
70. New powerful APIs regularly ship with new releases of Chromium-based browsers Some only add minor finishing touches, others enable whole application categories as productivity apps to finally make the shift to the web Some APIs already made their way into other browsers (e.g., Web Share) Fugu process makes sure that capabilities are implemented in a secure, privacy-preserving manner Let’s make the web a more capable platform!
