Use Case Guide

Debug Caching Issues

Stop fighting with stale data. See exactly why a request was served from cache and what headers are controlling it.

The Problem

Unexpected caching can lead to 'zombie' bugs where fixed data doesn't appear for users, and debugging headers like 'Vary' or 'ETag' is tedious.

The DevConsole Solution

DevConsole highlights cached requests and provides a 'Cache Analysis' panel that explains why a certain policy was applied.

Step-by-Step Implementation

Find Cached Requests

Look for the 'disk cache' or 'memory cache' tag in the request log.

Inspect Headers

Review the Cache-Control, Pragma, and Expires headers in a readable format.

Force Busting

Use the 'Clear Cache' button for specific endpoints to test how your app fetches fresh data.
