1.sequence

request - server responds - domContentLoaded - load

  1. Choose the metrics

web.dev/user-centric-performance-metrics

2.1 Is there content?

  • Time to First Byte

    a) Time from when the browser requests a page to the first bye of the page being received

    b) Value = time to establish connection + 2*time to transmission + time for server respond

  • First Paint

    a) time when the first pixel is painted on the screen

    b) value greater than TTFB, somewhere after domContentLoaded

  • First Contentful Paint

    a) time when the first piece of content from the DOM is rendered

    b)

    2.2 is the content meaningful?

  • Largest Contentful Paint

    a) successor to FMP, measures the time when the largest piece fo content whithin the viewport is rendered

    b) better than FMP

  • Visually Complete

    a) time taken for the content within the viewport to be fully rendered

    b) longer than LCP

  • Speed Index

    a) score of how quickly visual content is rendered within the viewport

    b)

    2.3 is the content interactable?

  • First Input Delay

    a) delay between the time a user can attempt to interact with a part fo the site, and the time that the interface is able to respond to that interaction

  • Max Potential First Input Delay

    a) maximum possible First Input Delay based on the duration of the longest task

  • Total Blocking Time

    a) total duration of JavaScript tasks between the First Contentful Paint and Time to Interactive

  • Time to Interactive

    a) time when the. main thread has had up to 5sec with no network activitiy or JavaScript tasks

    2.4 Are interactions smooth?

  • Cumulative Layout Shift

    a) shifts in layout while a page is loading

  • Frame Rate

    a) rate at which the browser can produce new frames in response to interactions and/or animations

    2.5 Example

e.g. News Website

  • is there content? First Contentful Paint
  • is the content meaningful? Largest Contentful Paint, Speed Index
  • is the content intractable? Time to Interactive
  • Are the interactions smooth? Cumulative Layout Shift
  • Define a budget
  • a performance budget defines specific values to your metrics that your site should never exceed.

e.g. News Website

  • FCP < 1.5s
  • LCP < 2s
  • SI < 0.43
  • TTI < 4s
  • CLS<0.1

OR use competitors as a guide/baseline

  1. Start measuring
  2. Lighthouse
  3. Calibre
