Jeff Posnick @jeff.posnick.org · 30/07/2026It does assume that your SSG templating is in JS. Apologies for the irrelevant reply if that's not the case! Mainly wanted to point out that caching entire HTML documents isn't always a necessity. 100
Jeff Posnick @jeff.posnick.org · 30/07/2026Does the service worker count as client-side? The service worker streams complete HTML with this approach. You don’t have to execute any JS in the context of the document. 110
