+###### Analyze a service worker request routing
+<!--
+#### Display the timing breakdown of a service worker request
+-->
+
+To visualize request routing, timelines display the service worker `Startup` event and the `respondWith` fetch events.  You can debug and visualize a network request that passed through a service worker.
+
+To display the timing breakdown of a service worker request:
+
+1. Go to a page that uses a service worker, such as the [pwamp](https://microsoftedge.github.io/Demos/pwamp/) demo page, in a new window or tab.
+
+1. Right-click the page, and then select **Inspect**.
+
+   DevTools opens.
+
+1. Select the **Network** tool.
 
-- **Stalled**. The request could be stalled for any of the reasons described in **Queueing**.
+1. Reload the page.
 
-- **DNS Lookup**. The browser is resolving the IP address for the request.
+1. In the list of requests, select a network request that went through a service worker file.  For example, select **about.css**.
 
-- **Initial connection**. The browser is establishing a connection, including TCP handshakes and retries and negotiating a Secure Socket Layer (SSL).
+   The sidebar appears.
 
-- **Proxy negotiation**. The browser is negotiating the request with a [proxy server](https://wikipedia.org/wiki/Proxy_server).
+1. In the sidebar, click the **Timing** tab:
 
-- **Request sent**. The request is being sent.
+   ![The Timing tab within the Network tool](./reference-images/timing-tab.png)
 
-- **ServiceWorker Preparation**. The browser is starting up the service worker.
+   The **Service Worker** section displays timing information about the **Startup** and **respondWith** phases.
 
-- **Request to ServiceWorker**. The request is being sent to the service worker.
+1. Click the expander arrow on the **respondWith** section:
 
-- **Waiting (TTFB)**. The browser is waiting for the first byte of a response. TTFB stands for _Time To First Byte_. This timing includes one round trip of latency and the time the server took to prepare the response.
+   ![The expanded respondWith section](./reference-images/respondwith-expanded.png)
 
-- **Content Download**. The browser is receiving the response.
+1. Within the **respondWith** section, click the expander arrow on **Original Request**:
 
-- **Receiving Push**. The browser is receiving data for this response via HTTP/2 Server Push.
+   ![The fully expanded respondWith section](./reference-images/respondwith-expanded-fully.png)
 
-- **Reading Push**. The browser is reading the local data that was previously received.
+1. On **Response Received**, click the expander arrow.
