How universal links work when app is installed with no internet connection

I have started reading about universal links, Although I understood the working but couldn't figure this out on what will happen if the universal link is clicked without having an internet connection.

I saw this behavior in the Twitter app and its opening even without the internet, But I couldn't understand the process behind the scenes. Can someone explain this to me

Once your project is configured to use Universal links, on the first load, the app downloads the rules from apple-app-site-association JSON file.

So the OS is able to resolve the clicked universal link without to be connected to the network.
