I wonder if running PouchDB would count... since it's an offline / online database.

I'm wondering if having a PDF that would have data that could self-update if there's an internet connection.

Anyone wanna collaborate on something like this?

I wonder if having a PDF like this that showed you how your stocks of choice are doing would be interesting.

Would would be the advantage of this over a website/PWA?

That it's more portable? It's more document-like/printable?

Self-contained, no need for internet unless you want it to update, is forward-compatible with future PDF readers.
