Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers

I recently had several days of extremely frustrating experiences with service workers. Here are a few things I've since learned which would have made my life much easier but which isn't particularly obvious from most of the blog posts and videos I've seen.

I'll add to this list over time – suggested additions welcome in the comments or via twitter.com/rich_harris.

Use Canary for development instead of Chrome stable

~~Chrome 51 has some pretty wild behaviour related to console.log in service workers. Canary doesn't, and it has a load of really good service worker related stuff in devtools.~~

Inferal Workspace Architecture

Your org's brain that AI can use

This document describes the conceptual architecture of the Inferal Workspace - a text-based, version-controlled knowledge and operations hub designed to replace tools like Notion and Webflow while being natively accessible to AI assistants.

Why We Built This

As an engineering-driven organization, we found ourselves fighting our tools instead of using them. Notion couldn't keep up with how we actually work - context scattered across pages, no version control, and AI that could read but not act. Webflow meant our website lived in a silo, disconnected from our codebase and deployment pipelines. Every tool was another tab, another context switch, another place where knowledge went to die.
