YOUR USERS NOW!
WHAT DO YOU NEED TO DO TO ENGINEER FAST LOADING
EXPERIENCES
Let’s go!
1. FEWER HTTP REQUESTS! The fewer the requests, the faster
content is served to the users.
- Webpack - Parcel TOOLS FOR MERGING
2. TAKE ADVANTAGE OF CDNS! ⚓ ..push assets to the
edge, use a content delivery network
3. Stylesheets at the top SCRIPTS at the bottom
4. Prefetch Resources Use Link tags to prefetch <link rel="prefetch"
href="/fonts/arial.ttf" as="font" crossorigin> <link rel="prerender" href="/next-page.html">
5. Minify Everything
#Bundle & Minify Everything ⚓ Just Webpack away!
6. Defer Scripts <script defer></script> - Defer heavy loading scripts
7. Have a font loading strategy
8. Code Splitting & Tree Shaking 1. Webpack 2. Rollup
3. Send less JavaScript to the user
How do you handle Images? Yourself???
9. Image & Files Handling ⚓ 1. Let a service
handle your images & files e.g Cloudinary 2. Compression of Images & Files 3. Progressive Image Rendering 4. Lazy Loading
speedcurve.com Chrome DevTools webspeedtest.cloudinary.com Tools for measuring speed? ⛷
Web speed - Image Analysis
