The Service Worker API allows webpages to download, install, and activate resources that can later be used by the browser. This allows users to view webpages when they're not connected to the Internet or the server hosting the original webpage is offline. Typically, things like cache invalidation and state restoration present significant challenges to adoption, but we fortunately don't have to deal with those for static content like documentation.
