This is a submission for the Netlify Dynamic Site Challenge: Build with Blobs.
Fetching resources over the network is both slow and expensive:
How can you avoid unnecessary network requests? The browser's Cache is your first line of defense. It's not necessarily the most powerful or flexible approach, and you have limited control over the lifetime of cached responses, but it's effective, it's supported in all browsers, and it doesn't require much work.
All HTTP requests the browser makes are routed first to the browser cache to check whether there's a valid cached response that can be used to fulfill the request. If there's a match, the response is read from the cache, which eliminates both the network latency and the transfer's data costs.
The HTTP Cache's behavior is controlled by a combination of request headers and response headers. In an ideal scenario, you have control over both the code for your web app, which determines the request headers, and your web server's configuration, which determines the response headers.
I've built a high-performance news application using Angular and the NewsAPI. I've implemented Netlify's cache control mechanisms, specifically Stale-While-Revalidate (SWR), to ensure a seamless user experience with a balance between fresh content and lightning-fast loading times.
headers: {
"Content-Type": "application/json",
"Cache-Control": "public, max-age=0, must-revalidate", // Tell browsers to always revalidate
"Netlify-CDN-Cache-Control": "public, max-age=0, stale-while-revalidate=31536000", // Tell Edge to cache asset for up to a year
}
News Article Cache Management with Angular, NewsAPI, and Netlify Cache Control
1. Dynamic Content Delivery with Stale-While-Revalidate (SWR):
netlify-cdn-cache-control
to "public, max-age=0, stale-while-revalidate=86400" in Netlify configuration.2. Granular Cache Control with Custom Headers:
Cache-Control
headers for more fine-grained control over different content types:
Cache-Control: no-cache
to bypass the cache entirely.Cache-Control: max-age=31536000
(1 year) for long-term caching.3. Monitoring and Optimization:
