Thanks a lot. Well without the service worker it wouldn't work offline any more and that's one of the key features. I remember trying to write down some notes in Keep while traveling just to find out it sometimes doesn't work offline.

I'm curious which browser are you using?

Not OP, but I get this message too. I'm using a modern Firefox (Firefox has supported service workers since 2016) so browser version isn't an issue.

I don't know much about service workers. But, after some searching I found out they apparently aren't supported in private / incognito mode.

I do 95%+ of my browsing in incognito mode, so this makes a lot of sense.

I experienced a strange thing while tried inspecting the source code: regardless of what file I opened, I always got back the contents of the index.html. See the screenshot here: http://deejayy.hu/share/paste-20240611-214248.png

After refreshing, it properly displayed the JS code for the SW.
