Getting Data In

How do I reload CSS and JS files despite the browser cache?

Hello,

I source CSS and JS files in my view, as below:

<form stylesheet="style.css" script="script.js">

But, each time I make modifications, the files are not reloaded (because of browser cache) and our modifications are not visible to the users. How can I do this? Clearing the cache is not an easy action for end users.

I tried

<form stylesheet="style.css?v1.0" script="script.js">

but it does not work.

easiest way is to bump the server-

https://<SH>:8000/en-US/_bump

Click that button. Every click increases the bump, which effectively breaks all caching in the webserver. No need to restart! If you find it doesn't work as expected, run also the debug/refresh endpoint.
