How can you ensure that the latest version of your PWA is always served to the user, even if they have older cached assets?

  • Increase the cache duration for all assets.
  • Notify users to clear their browser cache regularly.
  • Rely on the browser's automatic cache management to fetch the latest version.
  • Use cache-busting techniques such as appending a version hash to asset URLs.
To ensure that users always receive the latest version of a Progressive Web App (PWA), cache-busting techniques should be used, such as appending a unique version hash or timestamp to asset URLs. This forces the browser to fetch the updated assets rather than relying on outdated cached versions. Relying solely on the browser's cache management or asking users to clear their cache is not a robust solution.
