The Cache-Only Strategy

How it works

This strategy uses a service worker that listens to page requests via the fetch event and responds to those requests from the cache.

Perform the following steps to implement the following strategy:

• Cache the static content (e.g., app shell) during the service worker’s install event.
• Handle the page requests in the service worker’s fetch event.
• Serve it from the cache even if the network is available—if the requested asset is from the app shell.

The slides given below illustrate the steps of this strategy:
