How to approach it
Lay out the routes and screens
The shell comes first, so the data layer plugs into a structure that already works.
Define the local schema and its migrations
These tables are what the interface reads from, so they have to match what syncs back.
Read every screen from the local database
Screens render from what is already on the device, so nothing waits on the network.
Write locally first, then queue the change for sync
A connection lost mid-edit leaves the app consistent and the change still pending.
Replay the queue in order when the connection returns
Edits applied out of sequence are the usual cause of records ending up wrong.
