Polkadot Delegation Dashboard is a PWA - or Progressive Web App - with a focus on efficiency and offline support in the context of Web3.

As a pure web application, it doesn't depend on remote backend to operate but connects to Polkadot nodes. Some data will be fetched to enhance the experience from github.com and polkassembly.io/, although the plan short term is to become fully decentralized.
