Ivan Akulov has collected a whole bunch of information and know-how on making things load a bit more quickly with preload and prefetch. That's great in and of itself, but he also points to something new to me – the as attribute: <link rel="preload" href="/style.css" as="style"...

The Serif Tax

Planning for Responsive Images

13.3.2019
The first time I made an image responsive, it was as simple as coding these four lines: img { max-width: 100%; height auto; /* default */ } Though that worked for me as a developer, it wasn’t the best for the audience. What happens if the the image in the src attribute is heavy? On high-end...

Application Holotypes

13.3.2019
It's entirely too common to make broad-sweeping statements about all websites. Jason Miller: We often make generalizations about applications we see in the wild, both anecdotal and statistical: "Single-Page Applications are slower than multipage" or "apps with low TTI loaded fast". However,...
