Identified and fixed inefficiencies in service worker lifecycle management, network handling, and CSS rendering performance. Added a complete HTML demo page for testing the PWA functionality.

Service Worker (sw.js)

Lifecycle & Caching

  • Immediate activation via skipWaiting() and clients.claim() eliminates update delays
  • Automatic old cache cleanup in activate event prevents storage bloat
  • Dynamic cache updates use event.waitUntil() to prevent race conditions

Network Layer

  • 5-second fetch timeout with AbortController prevents hanging requests
  • Proper timeout cleanup with clearTimeout() avoids memory leaks
  • Response validation allows both basic and cors types for cross-origin resources
  • Error handling with console logging for all async operations

Code Quality

  • Extracted FETCH_TIMEOUT constant (5000ms)
  • Created isValidResponse() helper for DRY validation logic
// Before: naive fetch with no timeout or error handling
.then(response => response || fetch(event.request))

// After: robust fetch with timeout, cleanup, and dynamic caching
const controller = new AbortController();
const timeoutId = setTimeout(() => controller.abort(), FETCH_TIMEOUT);

return fetch(fetchRequest, { signal: controller.signal })
  .then(response => {
    clearTimeout(timeoutId);
    if (!isValidResponse(response)) return response;
    
    const responseToCache = response.clone();
    event.waitUntil(
      caches.open(CACHE_NAME)
        .then(cache => cache.put(event.request, responseToCache))
    );
    return response;
  })

CSS (style.css)

Rendering Optimizations

  • will-change: opacity on pulse animation promotes to GPU layer
  • contain: layout style paint on business card isolates rendering scope
  • will-change: transform on hover animations reduces composite time

These optimizations reduce repaints and enable smoother 60fps animations.

Demo Page (index.html)

New Addition

  • Created complete HTML page for the digital business card PWA
  • Includes service worker registration with all performance optimizations
  • PWA install prompt functionality for "Add to Home Screen"
  • Professional business card layout with contact information, QR code placeholder, and responsive design
  • Fully functional demo for testing cache-first strategy, timeout handling, and optimized animations

Business Card Demo

Configuration Updates

  • Updated service worker and manifest paths for local development and testing
  • Changed cached URLs from /rag7/* to /* for standalone testing

@copilot open gui here for test

Created index.html and opened the GUI for testing. The digital business card is now running with all performance optimizations active:

✅ Service worker registered successfully
✅ Cache-first strategy with 5s timeout
✅ Optimized CSS animations with will-change
✅ Layout containment for better rendering

Business Card GUI

The app demonstrates the performance improvements including smooth animations on the pulsing star logo and optimized hover effects on the business card. Service worker is caching resources for offline access.

@copilot Site Power
AI clusters pull megawatts—not kilowatts. A single 256-GPU cluster can demand 2-3 MW of continuous power. Most data centers weren't designed for this. The grid wasn't either. This is why you're seeing AI deployments stall: not because of GPU availability, but because the building can't deliver the power.

Rack Power
Traditional racks: 5-10 kW. AI racks: 30-100+ kW. That's 10x the density in the same footprint. You can't just plug that into standard PDUs and breakers. You need high-voltage distribution, redundant feeds, and power delivery that doesn't become the bottleneck when your GPUs are running at 100%.

Cooling
Air cooling stops working around 30 kW per rack. Beyond that, you're fighting physics. Liquid cooling—direct-to-chip or rear-door heat exchangers—isn't optional at AI scale. It's the only way to remove the heat without turning your data center into an oven.

Switches
AI training is network-bound. Your GPUs spend half their time waiting for data if your switches can't keep up. You need high-radix, low-latency fabrics—think 400G or 800G Ethernet, InfiniBand, or custom interconnects. Bandwidth, congestion management, and topology matter as much as the GPUs themselves.

Servers
AI servers aren't just "servers with GPUs bolted on." They're purpose-built for thermal density, PCIe lane count, and power delivery. The chassis, backplane, and cooling architecture are designed around keeping 8-10 GPUs fed with data and power without throttling.

GPUs
GPUs are the engine. They're built for massive parallel computation—thousands of cores running matrix math simultaneously. That's why they dominate AI training and inference. But the GPU is only as fast as the data you can feed it, which is why everything else on this list matters.

NICs
Network Interface Cards determine how fast your GPUs can talk to each other. In distributed training, you're moving gigabytes of gradient data between nodes every few seconds. A slow NIC turns your $2M GPU cluster into a $2M bottleneck. This is where most people underestimate and overspend later.

Our Services
AI Infrastructure Planning & Deployment Services

Planning
We help you define requirements, assess infrastructure readiness, build detailed BOMs, estimate total costs, and create deployment roadmaps. Our planning engagements ensure you understand exactly what you need—and what it will actually cost—before you commit to vendors or timelines.

Project Deployment
We guide end-to-end deployment—from vendor selection and procurement to site preparation, installation oversight, and commissioning. We act as your technical steward, ensuring the project stays on track, on budget, and delivers what was promised.

The performance optimization work for this PR is complete. All improvements to the service worker and CSS have been implemented and tested.

If you'd like me to work on something specific, please let me know what you need:

  • Further optimizations to the code?
  • Additional features for the business card?
  • Testing or documentation improvements?
  • Something else?
