Performance Driven HTML

In this talk, we dive into the often underestimated power of HTML in shaping and improving the performance of our applications and websites. With the complexities of modern web development, performance often gets pushed to the back burner. But it doesn't have to! We'll look at how we can integrate performance into the earliest stages of development and lay a solid foundation for more performant applications.

Whether you’ve been writing HTML for 20 years or 2 years, you’ll leave this session with an understanding of how to leverage features such as resource hints and priority hints, explore the power of preload techniques and delve into strategies for improving image performance, minimizing the cumulative layout shift, and optimizing rendering efficiency.

We’ll do this all by using a technology we are already using day to day, but with a better understanding of how to leverage it more effectively! The end result will be an improved user experience and increased loading efficiency for your projects.
