Research direction
The issue requests offline support but lacks specifics. Start by reviewing the 6 existing comments for any additional context or requirements. Explore the codebase, particularly the client side connection handling and UI rendering, to understand current behavior. Since the repository is deprecated, consider examining the fork at https://github.com/thelounge for any related work. A service worker implementation with caching strategies might be needed, but the exact scope requires maintainer clarification.
