Ask HN: Building Great Embedded Web Apps?

2 pointsby benticeover 1 year ago
I’m building a web app that will primarily be embedded on my clients websites in an iframe or by other means. I am looking for articles, guides, or talks on best practices for building embedded web apps. Does anyone have any suggestions?<p>Some issues I’m encountering: - Building UI&#x27;s with no scrolling - Responsive design within iframes - Testing different scenarios my iframe might be in<p>I really like Typeform’s embedded forms. Anyone have other products which have really good embedded functionality?

Implementing these I’ve found it useful if the iframes content supports iframeresize (<a href="http:&#x2F;&#x2F;davidjbradshaw.github.io&#x2F;iframe-resizer&#x2F;" rel="nofollow">http:&#x2F;&#x2F;davidjbradshaw.github.io&#x2F;iframe-resizer&#x2F;</a>), window message passing of url changes to the host site via the dom, and typically supports google analytics (usually not possible via iframe, only when embedding using scripts).

Will it be cross origin? If so I think there are other issues.
