I am one of the most clueless people about web applications going around, but my understanding was that Javascript applications were stored on a remote server but cached and executed locally. Surely with a bit of tweaking (like making sure that the whole application gets cached and not just part of it) it could continue to work once your connection is gone. apt-get normally also initially relies on a network connection.
