Caching / Updating Site Slowly

Been pulling my hair out over this for a few hours, basically, when I deploy my Laravel / VueJS app, it builds correctly, and I can see the changes in the compiled JS assets on the server, however viewing the page doesn't reflect the change.

Tried :-

Different Browser Different Computer Redeploying clearing all caches through artisan commands (view cache I thought would be the issue)

Any thoughts on where I am going wrong? it does seem to update after something like 90 minutes? even tho the change is in the directory on the server almost right away.

Please help, im losing hair fast

If your using chrome, thats your might be your main issue. Few months ago, to speed up performance they adjusted caching and doesn't check of changes as often. Even local dev environment I have to version or change names of js files every so often

Also check your headers for when it verifies css, js etc for changes.

Try some sort of versioning, that will more then likely fix all your issues
