Progressive Web App (PWA)

This example demonstrates a progressive web app that deploys a service worker with no bundling, transpiling, or complicated build process. It is based on the Workbox library example.

Deploy your own

Deploy your own clone of this app to Begin!

Getting started

• Install dependencies: npm install
• Start the local dev server: npm start

Service Worker Cache Manifest

This example uses two strategies to generate the cache manifest.

• For fingerprinted static assets in the public folder Begin generates a manifest called static.json that can be queried to cache the fingerprinted assets.
• For pages served from lambda endpoints that do not have fingerprinted file names a timestamp is generated and stored in the shared folder to be used for a cache revision number.
