# 👷‍♀️ 👷 Service Worker Detector

## 💻 💬 Description

This extension detects if a website registers a

[Service Worker](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ServiceWorker)

by reading the `navigator.serviceWorker.controller`

[property](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ServiceWorkerContainer/controller).

This read-only property of the `ServiceWorkerContainer` interface only returns a `ServiceWorker`

object if its state is `activated`. It returns `null` if the request is a force refresh

(shift + refresh) or if there is no active worker.

⚠️ If the extension does not seem to work, perform a soft reload, so the Service Worker

has a chance to become active.

This is not an officially supported Google product.
