A lightweight React library for automatic cache busting in production builds. Version 0.1.8 provides a simple mechanism: during build, it generates a meta.json file containing the package version, and at runtime, a React component fetches that file, compares versions, and clears the cache/reloads the page if a new version is detected. It integrates with any React app (React >=17.0.2, Node >=10) and is TypeScript-friendly. Differentiators: zero-config setup via a single script and component, supports a custom loading component, and works with any hosting since meta.json can be served statically. Release cadence is irregular; last update was in 2021.
