+# Caching
+
+The caching for mapr is handled on the networking layer. This means that data which is fetched over slow IO is cached in
+the format of the network requests. The mapr library is not introducing a separate serialization format for caching.
+
+Instead, caching functionality of HTTP client libraries of the web platform are used. This has the advantage that we can
+honor HTTP headers which configure caching. This is very important for fetched tiles, as they can have an expiry date.
+
+* On the web we are using service workers to cache network requests.
+* On Linux, MacOs, iOS and Android we are
+  utilizing [reqwest-middleware-cache](https://crates.io/crates/reqwest-middleware-cache/), which writes raw network
+  requests to disk.
