App crashes with no internet connection

[Ceri-anne]

The app crashes if opened with no internet connection (i.e. if in airplane mode) as the dev.to url cannot be loaded.

What is the preferred behaviour? My thoughts were an error view controller with a retry button which can be used throughout the app when there is no internet connection

Definitely agree with you.

And in addition to this main crash case, anything we can do to add network-aware indications which notify the user and let them retry or take the appropriate action are super duper welcome.

Cool, I'll get on it :)
