What do you mean by “Service Workers” in the DevTools?

    • Service Workers are a web technology that enables the creation of scripts that run in the background of a web page or web application.
    • They can intercept network requests, cache data, and serve cached content when the network is unavailable or slow.
    • In the DevTools, you can view and manage service workers in the “Application” tab.
    • The “Service Workers” panel displays information about the active service worker, including its status, scope, and cache storage.
    • You can unregister or update the service worker from this panel.
    • Service workers can be used to create offline-first web applications, improve website performance, and provide a seamless user experience.
    • They are supported by most modern web browsers, including Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
