-
Service Worker Optimization: Service Worker is the core of PWA, responsible for caching resources and enabling offline functionality. Implement appropriate caching strategies, such as using a cache-first approach for static resources and a network-first approach for API requests to ensure data freshness.
-
Lazy Loading: Implement lazy loading for images, videos, or long lists, loading resources only when users scroll to them. This significantly reduces data transfer during initial page load and improves page response speed.
-
Minify and Compress Resources: Use tools like Webpack or Gulp to minify and compress JavaScript, CSS, and HTML files, reducing file size and accelerating loading times.
-
Use HTTP/2: HTTP/2 provides header compression, server push, and other features that reduce latency and improve loading efficiency. Ensure servers support HTTP/2 to substantially enhance resource loading speed.
-
Optimize Images: Optimize image formats (e.g., using WebP) and adjust sizes appropriately for device capabilities to minimize unnecessary data loading.
-
Use WebAssembly: For high-performance tasks, consider using WebAssembly to improve execution efficiency, particularly in scenarios like graphics rendering or video encoding.
-
Dynamic Imports: Use dynamic imports for JavaScript modules to load them on demand, reducing unnecessary JavaScript loading and parsing time.
-
Preload and Prefetch: Utilize
<link rel="preload">and<link rel="prefetch">to preload resources for future navigation requests, enabling early loading of critical assets. -
Optimize CSS and JavaScript Execution Performance: Minimize repaints and reflows, optimize animation performance, and avoid long-running JavaScript tasks that block the main thread.
By applying these specific technical strategies, you can effectively enhance PWA performance and deliver a superior user experience.
