Performance Improvement for Web Applications

Web Vitals

1. FCP (First Contentful Paint)(Response Quick)
2. LCP (Largest Contentful Paint)(get to the point)Big Images/article
3. CLS (Cumulative layout Shift)(Don't move Elements)
4. First input Delay (Don't load Too Much Data)Brower in the background handling the Asyc works and because of that it puts delay

NOTE:-

Cumulative layout Shift

1. The movement that impacts the page elements, in the entire lifetime of the document the user sees.
2. also, this is costly as the layout will change, and then it it do the Layout, paint, and composite again. Also post that if there are any damaged pixels it will re-render again

Bench Marks

LCP:

good < 2.5 sec < Need Improvement < 4.0 sec < Poor

FID:

good < 100 M.sec < Need Improvement < 300 M.sec < Poor

CLS:-

good < 0.1 sec < Need Improvement < 0.25 sec < Poor

field data (Actual user data) for Application performance monitoring

1. Light House (Local Performance Monitoring is specific depending on your system preferences)
2. https://developer.chrome.com/docs/crux/dashboard/
3. https://www.lightest.app/ (Compare with similar applications)
4. https://www.performancebudget.io/

Improving on FCP:

1. If your users are far away from the server better to use CDNS.
2. Its is the big impact (Can consider gzip as well)

Improving LCP

1. Defer resources until later (defer/ async in the script)

 // For Other image tags / video links from I frame we can use intersection Observer to handle when the view port intersect with the element. 
 
2. Optimize images (Very Important)
 As I mentioned above along with this even we load bit latter but some images are 2Mb size and which is not needed 
 
there are 2 approaches 
 
a. use image compressor (tinyPng) (imagemin npm package)
 b. use kind of srcset for various responsive designs,as mentioned below
 
 

        

         Copy after login
        
       

3. reduce request Overhead

preload and preconnect

Improving CLS

1. Please don't move Elements , i.e thumb rule
2. for Advertise we need to mention this is the max height with allocateddiv
3. Let's say the cookie banner we can fix ed at the bottom. Then there would be a major boost compared to we show them on top and when the user clicks accept and disappear our layout structure will not impacted
4. We can target for 0.01 (0.059) (CLS)(LightBox)
5. for image tags we can specify thewidth and height attributes

Improving FID

a. Don't defere everything to the end, because let's say your LCP is done and the user trying to interact with the UI but as we did everythingdeferthe Browser till loading those on background so not a good Idea to all to defer.

Only not required immediately js files we can defer.
