+Jake,Alex who might want to clarify the spec on this point (see this message <http://lists.w3.org/Archives/Public/public-geolocation/2014Sep/0024.html> onwards for context). No, install is fired when a SW starts being installed. Completing installation doesn't mean a SW will be used yet. Once the SW is ready to be activated (in particular, once all tabs using an old version of the SW have been closed, or the new SW version calls event.replace() <https://slightlyoff.github.io/ServiceWorker/spec/service_worker/#install-event-replace-method> in its install event to forcibly take over), then an activate event will be fired (once only), and from then on that SW will receive fetch events etc. This all happens once only (or only when you update the SW I guess). IIRC no events are fired when the UA destroys or the script context or reloads it (by re-executes the SW JS).
