What are alternatives to background sync?

When it comes to alternatives to background sync, there are various methods that can be employed to achieve similar functionality without relying on this specific API. Here are a few notable alternatives:

• Web Workers: Use web workers to run scripts in background threads, allowing for tasks to be processed without blocking the user interface.
• Service Workers: Implement service workers to cache resources and serve them when the network is unavailable, which provides an offline experience.
• Polling: Regularly check the server for updates at set intervals to ensure data is current, though this can be resource-intensive.
• Push Notifications: Utilize push notifications to alert users when new data is available, prompting them to sync when they are online.
• LocalStorage and IndexedDB: Store data locally on the client side and synchronize it with a server when connectivity is restored.
