version-switcher: fetch switcher.json fresh (bypass cache)#5
Merged
Conversation
switcher.json changes every deploy, but GitHub Pages serves it with Cache-Control: max-age=600, so the dropdown could show a version list up to ~10 min stale (a new pr-<n>/release wouldn't appear without a hard reload). Bust both layers: a unique query string forces a CDN-edge miss → origin, and cache: "no-store" stops the browser serving its own copy. The file is tiny, so always-fresh is cheap.
