@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf 1. Network request 2. Parsing 3. Rendering
3 key concepts

Parsing is SUPER time consuming Parsing + Compiling

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Takeaway Shipping less code reduces the time for
parsing, compiling, and executing the code

@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO 6 Lessons Learned 4.

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf There is no Silver Bullet for web performance.
Disclaimer and biggest lesson learned

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Don’t do a premature optimization… Find your real
business needs Takeaway

Empathy with your users 1.

@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf SLOW access to Internet (Developing countries) Expensive
internet fares. Cheap phones/COMPUTERS

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Code for everybody and have a team culture
of testing in multiple devices and simulate bad internet access

Don’t overwork!  Load when you need 2.

Lazy loading!

@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Not only lazy loading images…

3. Modern images formats WebP (no PNG), JPG2000…

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Images are one of the main reasons why
your website takes more time to print. Takeaway

@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf JPEG2000, WebP, JPEG XR

<picture> <source srcset="img/pic.webp" type="image/webp"> <source srcset="img/pic.jpg" type="image/jpeg"> <img src="img/pic.jpg" alt="Alt
Text!"> </picture> Speed up web performance https://css-tricks.com/using-webp-images/

Be careful with infinite lists… 4.

@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Messages project. My first React App :P
https://github.com/ferreiro/messages

import InfiniteCardList from ‘../components/InfiniteCardList' const isInfiniteScrollActivated = false; // State.
User Settings const onAddMessage = (message) => { /* Logic. */ }; const onRemoveMessage = (message) => { /* Logic. */ }; const onFavoriteMessage = (message) => { /* Logic. */ }; <InfiniteCardList loadLimit={20} messages={[]} isInfiniteScrollActivated={isInfiniteScrollActivated} onAddMessage={onAddMessage} onRemoveMessage={onRemoveMessage} onFavoriteMessage={onFavoriteMessage} /> Inﬁnite Scrolling React bit.ly/ferreiro-scroll

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf Infinite lists are greedy. Be careful with them!

Simplify your code. Write less… 5.

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf The less you write, the faster the parser
will finish. Remove unnecessary dependencies and code. Takeaway

@JGFERREIRO @JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf div:nth-of-type(3) ul:last-child li:nth-of-type(odd)*{ font-weight:bold } CSS Shorter
Selectors, fast loading. Avoid THIS…!

@JGFERREIRO #TwitterPerf The shorter your CSS selectors, the faster the
browser will apply the styles Takeaway

Take a coffee with Backend folks… 6.
