Packages

The latest update of Remix PWA ships with a lot of new packages. This page will give you an overview of all the new packages and what they do.

Stay tuned cause a few more are in the works!

​

@remix-pwa/dev

This is the heart of Remix PWA. Ships with the compiler and the dev server as well as CLI engine, this is the package that makes everything work.

​

@remix-pwa/worker-runtime

This contains the default runtime for Remix PWA. It's a small package that contains the internal service worker and handlers for the default runtime.

​

@remix-pwa/cache

This is a very thin wrapper around the browser's CacheStorage & Cache API. It is used like the normal cache but it also adds a few extra features like the ability to cache a response for a specific time (cache expiration) and LRU behaviour.

​

@remix-pwa/sw

The main factory house for Remix PWA. Ships with a lot less than v2 but still as important. Contains typings for the worker as well as utilities like hooks and LiveReload, worker messaging handler and more.

​

@remix-pwa/strategy

The new breakaway from @remix-pwa/sw. This package contains all the strategies that ships with Remix PWA with a new one added to the mix: StaleWhileRevalidate.

The strategy format has also changed. Read on more to find out how and why.

​

@remix-pwa/sync

The Background Sync API is a new API that allows you to defer actions until the user has stable connectivity. This package contains the utilities to make this work with Remix PWA. Heavily inspired by Workbox implementation, we have made it a lot easier to use as well as standalone so you can use it in your service worker file and routes alike.

​

@remix-pwa/client

This package contains the client side utilities for Remix PWA. It ships with a lot of APIs to help with native components like clipboard, connectivity, sharing, contacts, etc.

There you have it! A quick overview of all the new packages that ships with Remix PWA v3 as well as a good introduction to the new structure of Remix PWA. Run along and explore more as we dive deeper into the APIs and components that make Remix PWA v3 the best PWA framework for Remix.
