After we understand how important Web Performance is and we've applied basic techniques, what's next? In this session we will cover extreme techniques that will blown your mind about Web Performance. New compression algorithms? new image formats? Client Hints? 14.6Kb? Let's hack Web Performance.
After quickly reviewing new metrics such as Speed Index and the RAIL goals, we will get deeply into advanced hacks to increase perception and performance on the web and PWAs.
We will cover the updated checklist of techniques to improve experience and perception and recent additions and hacks, such as: the usage of HTTP/2, how to replace PNGs and JPEGs, HTTP Client Hints, better compression encoding algorithms available, browser's prefetching and lazy loading new abilities and how advanced techniques on top of Service Workers can help improving conversion and reduce user's frustration.
We'll cover some extreme new ideas, such as serving ATF content in 14Kb, using magician tricks or how to use new APIs to make decisions on the fly.
We will finally talk about how we usually underestimate the Web on mobile devices, including the relationship between Responsive Web Design and Web Performance and why new controversial subsets of the Web have appeared and what we can learn from them -Google's AMP (Accelerated Mobile Pages) and Facebook's Instant Articles-.
