Description

Would be great to have a connection indicator in this boilerplate so users can be notified that they are offline (and let them know what is going to happen with their data). I believe this is a nice feature and pretty common UX requirement for any interactive app. But this will require implementing another feature like Notifications, i.e. flash messages generally used as confirmation of some action result (success/error).

Contributor guide

Research direction
Review the current repository codebase to see if any notification or flash message components exist. Explore usage of navigator.onLine and the 'online'/'offline' events to detect connectivity. Check if the project uses any state management (e.g., Redux or React Context) to handle the connection status and trigger UI updates. Look for existing patterns for temporary messages or alerts in the project's component library. Additionally, examine closed PRs or comments for any prior work on this issue.
