Description

This mode would always return the most up-to-date (available) data, and would even return data if HAFAS (or the client device) is offline. Longer TTLs (hours, possibly even Infinity) could be used.

Contributor guide

Research direction
Implement a fallback mode that attempts to fetch fresh data and falls back to cached data on failure, with configurable TTLs.
