We can use 11ty’s new Serverless mode to build them on request using Netlify’s On-Demand Builders to cache each Madlib. For example, an “On-Demand Builder” is a serverless function dedicated to serving a cached file. Netlify then caches that page on its edge CDN for each additional call. Large preview ).

Most sites were all hosted on a single physical server somewhere on our own hosting infrastructure, and it was the server we thought about defending when it came to security best practices. SRI does a good job of adopting the simplest — file hashing. This is followed by a dash and then the hash itself, encoded with base64.

You would, however, be hard-pressed even today to find a good article that details the nuanced best practices. This is because, as I stated in the introduction to part 1 , much of the early HTTP/2 content was overly optimistic about how well it would work in practice, and some of it, quite frankly, had major mistakes and bad advice.
