The ultimate guide to web performance

[@aryangavale4878]

The amount of knowledge he gave about web performance is just insane judging by the amount of time he told it in. This information would have been a lot harder to process if it would be told by someone other that fireship

[@ThomPorter74]

Agreed! I knew about LCP, but had never heard of CLS or FID. A few minutes with a Fireship video and suddenly I'm an expert. He's by far my favorite dev-related content creator.

There was a time I used to think about what exactly companies required retaining web developers for after the initial website build and deployment, and its later I discovered the functionalities of dynamic websites, time series apps, things like this video - performance which requires continuous integrations possibly, website updates, ui updates, etc. With these little and many more, I discovered yeah, its actually work - work, work, work, work... On my journey to becoming a web developer btw.

[@shivankbatra5643]

same man same, its an ocean when you peek into it

[@moritz759]

I got the chance to have a look at web developers work in two awesome companies and what I discovered is that there’s basically always work left to do. Whether it’s bug fixing, adding new features or improving the site. You really need a team of skilled developers just to maintain a large site.

[@Patrity]

Unlighthouse has been a great help to my workflow. Awesome tool!

[@omnilothar]

it is not an extension? so I need to have nodejs in local, clone the repo, and npm install then run the npx within the same dir?

[@ThePersonWhoKnocks]

This video is a gold mine for web developers! Fireship's knowledge on web performance is impressive, and he managed to explain everything in just 6 minutes and 43 seconds. I particularly appreciate his tips on LCP, FID, and CLS, and I can't wait to apply them to my projects. Thank you for another amazing video, Beyond Fireship!

Thank you for that video, just a few hours ago searched for layout shift issues because my build has horrible layoutshifts for no reason. Your video came in the right moment.

[@martinchya2546]

As for general website optimization, image lazy-loading is quite low-hanging fruit. It can shave few seconds on LCP for unoptimized sites due to resource competition in critical rendering path. And you can turn the optimization with single attribute nowadays.

[@loaded_with_hay]

I had heard about those before but could never remember which was which. Now everything is crystal clear. Good job.

[@NotTheHeroStudios]

the level quality Jeff puts out is incredible. It feels like he has an entire team behind him, but from what I know, its just him

[@ComradeTomatoTurtle]

It’s amazing what you fit in such a short video when I spent weeks learning to optimize all sorts of websites for speed. I still spend hours on this for clients, but lighthouse is not the best way to check page performance, I find gtmetrix a better tool. Lighthouse gets negativity effected by chrome extensions and thus have to perform it incognito or turn extensions off.

[@austinamento]

I hope you never stop making videos or else my job will be at risk!

fireship was in Demon level of educational content delivery, now he's just Dragon level heading to God.

[@gotoastal]

I would add JPEG-XL to modern image formats; slap it in your picture elements and image-sets now so browsers know your site wants supports (some forks do support it). CDN can often time be an expensive premature optimization. I don't think folks should blindly assume they need one in a lot of cases. “Workers” can be overkill too. The free services will go the way of Heroku in the future and drop their free tier so it’s better to avoid if you can. Frameworks like Qwik don’t even work with out JavaScript which circles back to many sites don’t need more than HTML, a single CSS file, and sparing JavaScript for enhancement; so many sites are broken with ‘optimizations’ that make things worse. The added complexity can just as much add cost to maintenance and development.

This is all foreign to me. Building an enterprise web app that our clients open at the start of the day, then leave open. It's actually preferable for us to have some delay on first load, get it all in the cache, and then a smooth experience after that.

HGW ordering is important

[@vitormalencar]

I think the tool is great, but I've noticed some differences when running it on my CI. I already have a setup that checks for Lighthouse scores, and I've found that there's a significant gap between the scores in production and those reported by the tool. For example, while the production score is around 75 (which seems correct), the same page scores 95 on Unlighthouse.

[@martinchya2546]

Lightouse is not a tool meant to be comparable between different machines/environments. Only compare LH audits to another LH audits on the same machine. Its heavly influenced by your network speed, operating system, cpu hardware, etc. There is no point comparing scores on CI vs your personal machine. Even tools like WPT and GSPI both use LightHouse under the hood, yet you will get vastly different scores using them.

Funny how you pronounce contentful. I always pronounced it content-full (both words pronounced as you would pronounce them separately, and “content” in the meaning of “there’s stuff inside”, not “happiness”). The way you pronounce it, imo sounds like you mean “fully satisfied” as opposed to “full of stuff”
