Figured I'd open source the little preact+signals mastodon client I wrote a few years ago, in case the code is useful to folks. It's called Mastodawn.com - a streaming, offline-first installable Mastodon web app that weighs under 100kb. github.com/developit/mastodawn

Under 100kb for a streaming offline-first Mastodon client is wild. Curious how you handled the ServiceWorker cache invalidation for the streaming timeline data without it getting stale or bloated over time.

It's all done via the Cache API instead of letting the SW cache network requests on its own. That's the neat part - it uses the Cache API as a database for network requests. It even mutates previously-cached requests to update them when realtime data comes in.
