Above & below-the-fold
jampack
optimizes assets above-the-fold ⬆️.
- Images are loaded with higher priority.
- Small images are embedded in HTML.
Lazy-load assets below-the-fold ⬇️.
- Images and Iframes are lazy loaded.
Inline critical CSS
Avoid FOUC while stylesheets are downloaded and parsed.
jampack
will inline critical CSS and lazy-load the rest of CSS.
Prefetch links
Speedup the future page navigations by prefetching the links on the page. Thanks to quicklink, this can be done dynamically as links enter the viewport.
All assets are compressed
In a 2nd PASS, jampack
compresses all untouched assets and keep the same name and the same format.
