Keep the server response time for the main document short because all other requests depend on it

All sites should be protected with HTTPS, even ones that don't handle sensitive data. This includes avoiding [mixed content](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/security/prevent-mixed-content/what-is-mixed-content), where some resources are loaded over HTTP despite the initial request being served over HTTPS. HTTPS prevents intruders from tampering with or passively listening in on the communications between your app and your users, and is a prerequisite for HTTP/2 and many new web platform APIs

Service worker is the technology that enables your app to use many Progressive Web App features, such as offline, add to homescreen, and push notifications. With proper service worker and manifest implementations, browsers can proactively prompt users to add your app to their homescreen, which can lead to higher engagement

To set budgets for the quantity and size of page resources, add a budget.json file

The maximum potential First Input Delay that your users could experience is the duration of the longest task

First Contentful Paint marks the time at which the first text or image is painted

Time to interactive is the amount of time it takes for the page to become fully interactive

Consider reducing the time spent parsing, compiling and executing JS. You may find delivering smaller JS payloads helps with this

Largest Contentful Paint marks the time at which the largest text or image is painted

Sum of all time periods between FCP and Time to Interactive, when task length exceeded 50ms, expressed in milliseconds

Large network payloads cost users real money and are highly correlated with long load times

Server latencies can impact web performance. If the server latency of an origin is high, it's an indication the server is overloaded or has poor backend performance

This is the largest contentful element painted within the viewport

Speed Index shows how quickly the contents of a page are visibly populated

Network round trip times (RTT) have a large impact on performance. If the RTT to an origin is high, it's an indication that servers closer to the user could improve performance

A long cache lifetime can speed up repeat visits to your page

A large DOM will increase memory usage, cause longer [style calculations](https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/rendering/reduce-the-scope-and-complexity-of-style-calculations), and produce costly [layout reflows](https://developers.google.com/speed/articles/reflow)

First Meaningful Paint measures when the primary content of a page is visible

First Contentful Paint 3G marks the time at which the first text or image is painted while on a 3G network

Time to interactive is the amount of time it takes for the page to become fully interactive

Sum of all time periods between FCP and Time to Interactive, when task length exceeded 50ms, expressed in milliseconds

Speed Index shows how quickly the contents of a page are visibly populated
