After uploading a static website in App Platform using GitHub source I deploy the website and ran a Lighthouse diagnostic on it.
The diagnostic result report is tagging my static site with a note saying “Serve static assets with an efficient cache policy”

Serve static assets with an efficient cache policy 33 resources found
A long cache lifetime can speed up repeat visits to your page. Learn more.
This is from the lighthouse report. It’s basically that it’s seeing that 33 image/js/css resources that I have in my static site source code have no efficient caching policy.
Thanks @kamaln7

Can you share more details about the Lighthouse report or your app URL if that’s ok? I just ran a Lighthouse test on a Static Site of my own (https://airlock.space) and it didn’t complain about this, so we’ll have to look more into your app specifically.

I’ve run into the same issue. When generating static sites all the images have unique names, allowing you to take advantage of both cdn and browser caching.
In my opinion, being able to control browser caching is essential. Without it, the load speed of our static sites will be negatively impacted.
