I'm planning to develop a city info site.

The web pages will display contents from a constantly updating MySQL database- most probably using a CMS.

I am planning to share the same database for a Mobile app related to this.

In the pages there are options for using geolocation, rate and comment for the user. I think, this mobile app should work while it's offline too.

So how should i deal with data for mobile? Should i use a connection between MySQL and IndexedDB? (I'm not quite sure about this part).

Appreciating your time & help.
