Hi! I'm Nikos and I'm a full stack engineer. I like coding all sorts of stuff, although I focus more on front end development with native JS/CSS features, React and 2D games with PixiJS. I'm really looking forward to provide more and more content in this website and I hope you enjoy my blog and games.

In this post, we’ll explore 4 different ways to accomplish vertical expansion.
My favorite service worker setup that I use in order to cache static content and provide basic offline experience. The first time I set my eyes on service workers, I thought how cool it would be to cache static content as much as I like and not rely on the server. Nowadays, static resources (js, css, images, etc.) are cache busted, meaning that they have a unique name based on their content. So it's not expected for a static resource to change. So why not cache it forever ?
