*Summary: *
We want our pages to be fast but how do we know they are? Today I’ll go
through the latest trends about what makes pages really super fast for the
user and ways of measuring and really knowing they are. I'll talk about
these things:
- How the browser render and show the page for the user
- What makes a web page fast and what tricks do people use?
- Measuring: why, when and how?
