Web Performance taste

# Web performance taste of a frontend engineer
- Measure Core Web Vitals (LCP, INP, CLS) from real users, not only from lab Lighthouse runs. Confidence: 0.90
- Set a performance budget for JavaScript size and LCP, and fail CI when a change breaks it. Confidence: 0.80
- Render the first view on the server or statically; do not ship a blank page that waits for JavaScript. Confidence: 0.90
- Ship less JavaScript before optimizing the JavaScript you ship. Confidence: 0.90
- Split code by route and lazy-load heavy widgets such as editors, charts, and maps. Confidence: 0.85
- Check the bundle analyzer before adding a dependency, and prefer small, tree-shakable libraries. Confidence: 0.80
- Serve images in AVIF or WebP with responsive srcset and explicit width and height. Confidence: 0.90
- Mark the LCP image with fetchpriority="high" and never lazy-load it. Confidence: 0.85
- Lazy-load below-the-fold images and iframes with loading="lazy". Confidence: 0.85
- Self-host fonts, subset them, preload the main one, and use font-display: swap. Confidence: 0.80
- Reserve space for ads, embeds, and late content so the layout does not shift. Confidence: 0.85
