A curated collection of service worker resources.


>Service workers are at the heart of every progressive web app. Their persistent nature allows progressive web apps to fulfill our expectations of what an app should do. They are the missing link between what 
only native apps could do and what modern progressive web apps can do.

visitors. But what do these gains actually look like to real users? And how do you even measure this?
