      Description

      Firefly requires a persistent websocket connection to the server in order to function properly.  In the case when the client is disconnected from the server, Firefly should periodically attempt to reconnect.  This can happen when one closes his/her laptop or switching from one network to another.

      When Firefly is no connected to the server, there should be an indication showing that it's no longer connected.

          How much could we keep the session information after the network disconnect and reconnect? How often do we want to check the connectivity? I agree  we should try after the network glitch, but shall we try to reconnect after a day of disconnection?

          We can use online/offline events: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/NavigatorOnLine/Online_and_offline_events

          It has been supported for awhile  on all the browsers we support.

          Demo using a react npm package:

          We don't need to package but I like the demo of the API
