sw-precache-webpack-plugin

Webpack plugin (v1.0.0) that generates a service worker file using sw-precache to cache external project dependencies. Abandoned since 2019; no longer updated with new webpack versions. Key differentiator: simple integration for service worker caching in webpack builds, but superseded by workbox-webpack-plugin which is actively maintained and more feature-rich. Handles automatic cache busting, minification, and navigation fallback. Last stable release was 2017; requires Node >=4.
