How to be really fast
The boss
World fastest web page
None
Start render: 0,2 s Visually Complete: 0,2 s
What can we learn?
What CDN are you using?
We know the Golden rule!
The rendering path
1. Download HTML
2. If CSS files then download
3. If JS files then download
4. DOM + CSSOM = render tree
5. Paint
Optimize the rendering path

Avoid reflow and repaint

Javascript
JAVASCRIPT CAN BE EVIL
JAVASCRIPT IS EVIL* *inside your rendering path
Synchronously loaded Javascript blocks the rendering path!
Example of non working
NEVER
use async <script src=“/js/calculate.js” async></script> https://www.igvita.com/2014/05/20/script-injected-async-scripts-considered-harmful/
measure above the fold
User Timing API
window.performance. mark(‘logoLoaded’);
window.performance. measure(‘logoTiming’, ‘navigationStart’, ‘logoLoaded’);
var items = window.performance .getEntriesByType(' measure');
None
There’s a polyfill for that!
