OpenJS World

Even with terrific technological advances over the last decade, we are still grappling with basic challenges of loading performance. Reaching real world production web sites is crucial for the health of the web, for user experience and performance. Open source powered ecosystem tools play a big role in supporting these sites. The tools include UI frameworks (React, Vue, Angular etc), static site generators, CMS, website builders and further down the stack we have webpack, babel, npm, typescript etc.

This talk covers our recent experiences in working on loading performance in production apps (yet again!) -- challenges faced and the lessons learned.

We come away, even more firmly believing that such problems should be tackled by SDKs of the web and we need to help them succeed. An SDK is an end-to-end system that controls every aspect from getting started, everyday development to deployment, and directly impacts both UX & DX.
