The proposal you’re about to read is not just a proposal. We have a working implementation of almost everything we discussed here.
We encourage you to checkout and build our branch: our fork, with the relevant branch selected. Building and using the implementation will give you a better understanding of what using it as a developer is like.
Our implementation ended up differing from the proposal on some minor points. As our last action item before making a PR, we’re writing documentation on what we did. While I loathe pointing to tests in lieu of documentation, they will be helpful until we complete writing docs: the unit tests.
This repo also contains a bundled version of npm that has a new command, asset. You can read the documentation for and goals of that comma

Stuff I wish I'd known sooner about service workers
I recently had several days of extremely frustrating experiences with service workers. Here are a few things I've since learned which would have made my life much easier but which isn't particularly obvious from most of the blog posts and videos I've seen.
I'll add to this list over time – suggested additions welcome in the comments or via twitter.com/rich_harris.
Use Canary for development instead of Chrome stable
Chrome 51 has some pretty wild behaviour related to console.log in service workers. Canary doesn't, and it has a load of really good service worker related stuff in devtools.
What forces layout/reflow. The comprehensive list.
What forces layout / reflow
All of the below properties or methods, when requested/called in JavaScript, will trigger the browser to synchronously calculate the style and layout*. This is also called reflow or layout thrashing, and is common performance bottleneck.
Generally, all APIs that synchronously provide layout metrics will trigger forced reflow / layout. Read on for additional cases and details.
