Performance & Optimization

Performance & Optimization

Optimize bundle size, implement lazy loading, and master web performance metrics.

Coming Soon

Performance optimization documentation is being crafted. Learn to build lightning-fast web applications!

What You’ll Learn

  • Core Web Vitals: LCP, FID, CLS and how to optimize them
  • Bundle Optimization: Code splitting, tree shaking, and bundle analysis
  • Loading Strategies: Lazy loading, preloading, and progressive enhancement
  • React Performance: Memoization, virtualization, and React DevTools
  • Network Optimization: Caching, CDNs, and resource optimization

Expected Topics

// Performance patterns you'll master import { memo, useMemo, useCallback, lazy, Suspense } from 'react'; import { measureWebVitals } from './utils/webVitals'; // Code splitting with React.lazy const HeavyComponent = lazy(() => import('./HeavyComponent')); // Memoized component to prevent unnecessary re-renders const OptimizedUserCard = memo(({ user, onSelect }) => { const displayName = useMemo(() => { return `${user.firstName} ${user.lastName}`.trim(); }, [user.firstName, user.lastName]); const handleClick = useCallback(() => { onSelect(user.id); }, [user.id, onSelect]); return ( <div className="user-card" onClick={handleClick}> <img src={user.avatar} alt={displayName} loading="lazy" // Native lazy loading decoding="async" /> <h3>{displayName}</h3> </div> ); }); // Performance monitoring const App = () => { useEffect(() => { // Measure and report web vitals measureWebVitals((metric) => { console.log('Web Vital:', metric); // Send to analytics }); }, []); return ( <Suspense fallback={<LoadingSpinner />}> <HeavyComponent /> </Suspense> ); };

Performance Optimization Techniques

  • Image Optimization: Next.js Image component and responsive images
  • Font Optimization: Font loading strategies and font-display
  • JavaScript Optimization: Minification, compression, and modern syntax
  • CSS Optimization: Critical CSS, unused CSS removal
  • Caching Strategies: Service workers, HTTP caching, and browser cache

Performance Monitoring Tools

  • Lighthouse: Automated performance auditing
  • Web Vitals: Real user monitoring metrics
  • React DevTools Profiler: Component performance analysis
  • Bundle Analyzer: Visualize bundle composition
  • Performance Observer API: Custom performance measurements

Advanced Performance Topics

  • Server-Side Rendering: SSR vs SSG performance implications
  • Streaming: React 18 concurrent features
  • Edge Computing: CDN and edge function optimization
  • Progressive Web Apps: Service workers and offline strategies

Expected launch: Q1 2025

Master performance optimization techniques to build blazing-fast web applications that delight users.
