Frontend Performance Practices
Use code splitting and lazy loading for routes
Minimize third-party JavaScript
Implement tree shaking for unused code elimination
Avoid render-blocking JavaScript
Optimize event listeners and debounce where appropriate
Use Web Workers for CPU-intensive tasks
Implement virtual scrolling for long lists
Use requestAnimationFrame for animations
Minimize DOM updates and batch when possible
Use CSS containment where appropriate
Minimize unused CSS
Avoid expensive CSS selectors
Optimize CSS animations using transform and opacity
Use media queries to load appropriate assets
Implement critical CSS inline
Minimize render-blocking CSS
Implement responsive images with srcset and sizes
Use WebP/AVIF formats with appropriate fallbacks
Compress all images appropriately
Implement lazy loading for images and iframes
Preload critical assets
Use SVG for icons and simple graphics
Implement font-display: swap for web fonts
Use font subsetting
Backend Performance Practices
Implement caching headers (ETags, Cache-Control)
Support pagination for large data sets
Implement GraphQL for flexible data fetching
Use field selection to minimize response size
Implement data compression (gzip, Brotli)
Design batched endpoints for multiple operations
Optimize database queries with proper indexing
Implement database query caching
Use connection pooling
Implement database sharding for large datasets
Use NoSQL databases for appropriate use cases
Implement database denormalization where appropriate
Use ORM optimization techniques
Implement multi-level caching strategy
Use Redis/Memcached for shared caching
Implement CDN caching for static assets
Use service worker caching for web applications
Implement cache invalidation strategies
Mobile-specific Practices
Implement app size optimization techniques
Use binary data formats (Protocol Buffers, FlatBuffers)
Optimize startup time with lazy initialization
Implement efficient image loading and caching
Use appropriate view recycling patterns
Optimize battery usage with background processing limits
Implement offline capabilities
Performance Testing Types
Load testing (steady load)
Stress testing (beyond normal capacity)
Spike testing (sudden increases)
Endurance testing (sustained period)
Scalability testing (increasing resources)
Component testing (isolated components)
Implement real user monitoring (RUM)
Set up synthetic monitoring for critical paths
Monitor backend performance metrics
Implement alerting for performance degradation
Use distributed tracing for request flow analysis
Perform regular performance audits
