Web Performance: Expectations vs Reality - JS Roundabout - April 2019

Presented by Jorge Ferreiro.

“Why is my website slow?”, “How can I improve the loading time?”, “How does the browser render a website?”, “What techniques can I apply to boost the speed of my website?”.

You will not only learn about the most common performance mistakes in a webpage but also, what the best solutions are and the main trade-offs when it comes to web performance.

We will see in details the three parts that affect your web performance (network requests, browser parsing, and browser rendering), and we will cover everything from loading non-blocking Javascript, reducing bundle sizes, cache content and more techniques.

Meetups are a great way to learn from our peers and to keep up with the latest trends and technologies. As developers ourselves, we at Pusher wanted to bring this great content to more people... So we built Sessions. On Sessions, you can watch talks that interest you and subscribe to be notified when new content gets added.
