July 17, 2022 — I have optimized performance at enterprise scale for the last 7 years, leading a team that has built a strong understanding of which optimizations are easy and which provide the greatest improvements.

Now I am offering that knowledge to you. In this workshop, we will focus on the web vitals with the highest impact for the least effort, the paint metrics.

Together we will improve these key metrics, get your site on screen faster, and identify common problematic patterns and fix them. This workshop’s road to quick wins will boost your confidence to dive into web optimization. How does becoming a performance advocate for your team sound?

You will need a laptop with the latest version of the Chrome browser installed. Target audience: anyone with a working knowledge of HTML and an interest in front-end optimization. CSS or JS experience is not required.

July 17, 2022 — In this workshop, participants will learn more about the performance of their websites. What goes into having a fast website, and a good user experience? We will answer the question “Why should you care about site performance in the first place?”

We will learn about simple tools you can use to test and monitor your website, and how to interpret and act on the results. We will talk about setting a performance budget and how to weigh performance when updating sites. If you can, bring your laptop along, and have a plan for a specific website (or plugin or theme) you want to work on optimizing. We’ll take a couple of short working breaks to try out the tools we learn about.
