Making Your UI Scream (not your users)

About this Presentation

Execution of JavaScript, CSS and other web application resources in the browser can make or break your site. Today, front-end developers should be thinking about everything from base64’ing images into their CSS to JavaScript and UI thread blocking while the page loads. It’s important to know how fast your app is now and what steps you can take to reduce load time - ultimately leading to better SEO rankings, more
lead conversions, and lower costs on bandwidth in the data center.
