About
Localhost No Cache helps you avoid stale files during local development. It intercepts requests to localhost and 127.0.0.1 and adds no-cache request headers so Chrome always revalidates instead of serving old disk cache content. Use it when working on frontend apps, APIs, SPAs, hot-reload setups, or any local server where cached assets cause confusion. A simple popup toggle lets you turn interception on or off anytime. The enabled/disabled state is saved automatically. Key features: Targets localhost and 127.0.0.1 across all ports. Applies to common resource types including HTML, JS, CSS, images, XHR/fetch, and WebSocket-related requests. Adds request no-cache headers to force fresh content checks. One-click enable/disable control in the extension popup. Lightweight Manifest V3 extension with no external services. Open source: https://github.com/datvm/LocalhostNoCache
