• Status: in consideration
• Deciders: Arthur Lu, Kara Hoagland, Rhea Bhutada, George Dubinin
• Date: 12 / 01 / 22

Decision Drivers

• Need to balance the need for user ease of use and local first priority
• Users should expect to update their app easily when they have network, but may not be expected to know how to perform a hard refresh
• Local first priority means we should avoid unnecessary network activity when possible

Considered Options

• Network first cache second
• Cache first network second

Decision Outcome

Chosen Option: Network first for automatic app updating.
