Optimizing Frontend Performance
Measure First
The path to faster experiences starts with dependable data. I combine lab tooling like Lighthouse with real-user metrics captured through Web Vitals to see how performance feels for everyone, not just my laptop.
Deliver Less, Sooner
Critical CSS up front, async everything else. Code-splitting by route, pruning unused libraries, and leaning on native browser capabilities often give 80% of the gains before deeper refactors are required.
Iterate With Guardrails
Performance budgets and dashboards keep improvements honest. They empower teams to ship quickly while staying alert to regressions, and they make it easier to advocate for investments that improve accessibility too.
