Local study notes

  • Largest content speed, interaction responsiveness, and layout stability are user-experience metrics, not only Lighthouse scores.
  • JavaScript cost and main-thread blocking often matter as much as network cost in frontend performance.
  • Bundle splitting, lazy loading, image strategy, and unnecessary rerender reduction work together rather than independently.
  • Good performance answers connect metrics to what users feel on real screens.

How to use it in answers

  • Use this pack when explaining your resume bullets about code splitting and lazy loading.
