The cache manifest in HTML5 was a software storage feature which provided the ability to access a web application even without a network connection. It became part of the W3C Recommendation on 28 October 2014.[1]
Since 2021, this technology is no longer widely available. It was removed from Firefox 85,[2] and disabled by default in Chrome 84 and removed in Chrome 95.[3] Using any of the offline Web application features at this time is highly discouraged and use of service workers is recommended instead.[4] Cache manifests are distinct from web application manifests, a JSON-based file format which is part of the progressive web app technology, and as of 2023[update] is currently active and going through the standardization process at the W3C.[5]
