I'm working on optimizing my web app's performance and was wondering what strategies other developers use. So far I've tried:

  • Lazy loading assets
  • Code splitting
  • CDN usage for media
  • Image compression

What other tools or techniques have you found effective in reducing load times?

Great question! In addition to what you've mentioned, I always start by running Lighthouse audits on my projects. It highlights the biggest bottlenecks.

For API requests, always implement proper caching headers. You can save 2-3 seconds per page load in production scenarios with good cache policies.

Don't forget about critical CSS. My loading times dropped 40% after implementing critical path CSS.
