@annevk sorry I neglected to respond to your comment. Not sure it makes sense to use `AbortController` since `skipWaiting()` isn't really about a request. Although you could definitely describe `skipWaiting()` as a way to "abort" the existing worker. The only formal description of `skipWaiting` I've seen is in the spec. The tl;dr: is 1. [Set the skipWaiting flag](https://w3c.github.io/ServiceWorker/#service-worker-global-scope-skipwaiting) 2. [Run the try activate algorithm](https://w3c.github.io/ServiceWorker/#try-activate-algorithm), which will actually activate once there are no pending events in the existing worker. -- You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
