Auto refresh a page in React.js

rated 0 times [ 8] [ 6] / answers: 1 / hits: 21591 / 7 Years ago, wed, january 3, 2018, 12:00:00

I need to continuously update/refresh my page to ensure that it is in sync with my server. Currently, I am using setInterval, but I read that serviceWorkers might solve my problem in a better way. Is it recommended to use serviceWorkers? (the background-sync seems like a good starting point.)

Or are there any other alternatives?

After some research, WebSockets seem like the best bet to have a live refresh on a website. Websockets helps maintain an open two-way connection between the website and the server so that whenever there is an update on the server, the server can push the changes on to the website.
