Dynamically Caching Static-Content
Explore how dynamic caching works in progressive web applications by storing user-requested static assets during app usage. Learn to implement dynamic caching with service workers to enhance offline capabilities beyond the static app shell. Understand the process of intercepting fetch events, adding responses to the dynamic cache, and testing offline functionality to provide a seamless offline user experience.
We'll cover the following...
The dynamic cache contains assets that are not cached during static caching. We don’t manually define the items to store in it. In this cache, we dynamically store the assets users request while using the app. By requesting these assets, the user expresses a need for them to be offline.
This type of caching content is still static, like files, images, scripts, etc. The only difference from static caching is that these assets are stored only when the user fetches them at least once. While in static caching, we specifically defined which assets to store in the cache.
