Describe the feature/enhancement

I think it would be great if resources were served from the local server, not externaly. Examples:

Workbox is used by node_modules/@nuxtjs/pwa. fetched from jsdelivr.net.
A background texture image is fetched from freepik.com
Github is fetched to check for new versions

@advplyr It is possible see https://pwa.nuxtjs.org/workbox/ and https://github.com/unjs/workbox-cdn

Especially would be nice to serve Workbox from the server instead of CDN.

I definitely think that having the server be fully local and not dependent on the internet is something essential for a proper self-hosted service.

For stuff like the version check, which (IIRC) just doesn't show anything if it can't reach github, that's not a problem, but for stuff that can actually affect the application negatively, such as workbox, it is actually something that could potentially be a problem.
