Overview
The plugin adds an iframe to the footer of your website which points to example.com/manifest.
That URL is an empty page that references the generated manifest file at example.com/manifest.appcache.
The manifest itself is built in the following way:
- adds URLs of all queued scripts and styles
- searches theme files and folder for any images or other static assets
- if a theme has a 307.php template it is used as an offline fallback
- a timestamp of the most recently modified file is added to force appcache to refresh
The net result of all this is that your main static files are stored locally on your visitors devices. For mobile this greatly helps to improve download and rendering times.
