Spec: https://wicg.github.io/background-fetch/ Article: https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2018/12/background-fetch Use case: Fetching (as in down- or uploading) content without the page being open. Example: ```js navigator.serviceWorker.ready.then(async (swReg) => { const bgFetch = await swReg.backgroundFetch.fetch('my-fetch', ['/ep-5.mp3', 'ep-5-artwork.jpg'], { title: 'Episode 5: Interesting things.', icons: [{ sizes: '300x300', src: '/ep-5-icon.png', type: 'image/png', }], downloadTotal: 60 * 1024 * 1024, }); }); ```
We would love to add background fetch to the PWA of German public broadcaster ZDF (https://pwa.zdf.de) so having support for this in Safari too would be highly appreciated.
