Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.
Polyfills and transforms enable older browsers to use new JavaScript features. However, many aren't necessary for modern browsers. Consider modifying your JavaScript build process to not transpile Baseline features, unless you know you must support older browsers. Learn why most sites can deploy ES6+ code without transpiling

Layout shifts occur when elements move absent any user interaction. Investigate the causes of layout shifts, such as elements being added, removed, or their fonts changing as the page loads.
Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.
A forced reflow occurs when JavaScript queries geometric properties (such as offsetWidth) after styles have been invalidated by a change to the DOM state. This can result in poor performance. Learn more about forced reflows and possible mitigations.

Optimize LCP by making the LCP image discoverable from the HTML immediately, and avoiding lazy-loading
Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.
Avoid chaining critical requests by reducing the length of chains, reducing the download size of resources, or deferring the download of unnecessary resources to improve page load.
Performance issues directly impact user engagement and conversion rates.
Requests are blocking the page's initial render, which may delay LCP. Deferring or inlining can move these network requests out of the critical path.
