In this practical session, Jason will guide you through the key design decisions you’ll need to make about your Progressive Web App and how those decisions impact the scope of your project. He'll also teach you how to avoid common pitfalls and help you take full advantage of Progressive Web App technology.

Web Performance is a serious issues these days. 80% of web performance issues are in the client. Many developers either do not realize what they are leaving on the table and how that affects the success of their application. These are 10 things any web developer can do in about 30-60 minutes to drastically increase page load times and thus increase the application's profitability.

This document provides information about choosing a free web host. It discusses researching various aspects of free web hosts including the amount of web space provided, whether ads will be displayed, availability of FTP access, file type and size limitations, reliability and speed, and whether programming languages like PHP and Perl are supported. It also discusses checking the bandwidth allotment and whether extras like a control panel, email, and forms are included. The overall message is that while free web hosting has advantages for those on a limited budget, it also has disadvantages like ads being displayed and limitations that should be fully researched before choosing a free host.

What do we mean when we talk about "web performance"? Why should you care about it? How can measure it? How do you get other people in your organization to care? In this workshop at the 2021 Chrome Dev Summit, I covered these questions – including an overview of the history of performance metrics, up to Core Web Vitals.

Last year at Velocity, Strangeloop's VP Product, Hooman Beheshti, presented the findings from phase one of Strangeloop’s long-term research into the relationship between web performance and business benefits. The results were also published in Watching Websites. Since then, we’ve received a barrage of questions from the web performance community, which fueled phase two of our study. In this presentation, Strangeloop president Joshua Bixby offers our most recent findings. Some of the community’s questions were: * Who were the clients? * How fast were the pages? * What acceleration techniques were implemented? * What happened to the key page components (such as JS size, payload and roundtrips) of the websites? * How did changing key variables (page load time, payload, number of roundtrips, etc.) affect the outcome? We’ve been collecting and analyzing data to help us answer these questions, as well as some new ones we’ve thought up along the way. Join us as we present our findings, and help us consider what areas deserve further study.

This document provides an introduction and overview of web design, including HTML, editors, hosting, and publishing websites. It discusses that while web design can seem intimidating, taking it slowly and learning the basics is important. WYSIWYG editors make it easier to design websites visually rather than through code, but have limitations and may produce imperfect HTML. Dreamweaver is recommended as a good option, while Frontpage is not advised due to flaws. Overall, learning HTML and gaining experience is emphasized over relying on programs.

How can we beat the speed of light and make visits faster? Pre-fetching is one way we can make resources available before they're needed. This talk explores challenges in mobile visit performance and discusses the design of a generic pre-fetching system.

The document discusses the redesign of Grinnell College's website. It describes goals for a new smaller site with an easier publishing workflow that better represents the school's brand and distinctiveness. An audit found the old site's navigation was confusing and the brand was unclear to outsiders. Prototypes were developed with concepts like "Individuality" and a customized tile system. The new site features a streamlined information architecture and content strategy to engage users. Initial user testing results have been positive, though changing behaviors remains a challenge. Benefits include more authentic communication while threats include resistance to change.

This document summarizes a talk given by Chris Heilmann at ForwardJS in 2015. Heilmann discusses the state of web development technologies and how developers have focused too much on experimental features that are not ready for production use. This has led to a fragmented web where browsers implement features differently. He argues developers should focus on standardizing and improving existing web standards rather than constantly introducing new technologies. ES6 is highlighted as a priority for improving existing JavaScript.

This document provides an agenda and notes for a class on web business. It discusses homework assignments, visits from a webmaster and entrepreneur, revenue models like SaaS and advertising. It introduces the Lean Launchpad methodology and Business Model Canvas for planning web businesses. Students participate in exercises applying these concepts to a nonprofit marketing campaign, social media for a cleaning company, and sketching canvases for a toy reseller business.

Web performance refers to how fast a website works for each user, not how many users it can serve. Slow websites can negatively impact user experience and conversion rates, costing companies money. Most web performance issues come from the front-end rather than the back-end. Areas to focus on for improvement include JavaScript deferral, utilizing browser caching, reducing payload size and number of requests, progressive enhancement, and back-end optimizations like caching, server configuration, and query optimization.

This document discusses modern web application development workflows. It begins by looking back at how web applications used to be developed by throwing together some HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files. It then introduces newer technologies like Node.js, which uses the V8 JavaScript engine to allow JavaScript to be used on the server-side as well. The document recommends using tools like Yeoman for scaffolding, Bower for package management, Gulp for automation, and unit/end-to-end testing with frameworks like Mocha and Protractor. It advocates following best practices like using version control with Git and hosting code on GitHub. Overall, the document promotes establishing a robust development workflow that leverages modern tools and techniques.

Responsive web design (RWD) allows websites to automatically adapt their layout to different screen sizes and devices like phones, tablets, laptops, and desktops. There are three main types of responsive designs - basic fluid, adaptive, and responsive layouts. Responsive design provides benefits like a better user experience across devices, lower development and maintenance costs by using one design, and improved search engine results by having a single, optimized site. It allows businesses to reach more customers and potentially increase sales and conversions on mobile. Overall, responsive design streamlines site management, reporting, and helps provide customers with a consistent experience no matter what device they use.

This is the Responsive Web Design presentation given to the CIDD, Chicago Interactive Design & Development Meetup group, (sponsored by the WunderLand Group) on 3-13-14 by Ryan Dodd, Design Director for Siteworx in Chicago.

This document discusses responsive web design and why it is important. It notes that mobile internet access now exceeds desktop access, driving the need for responsive designs. Responsive designs use fluid grids and media queries to automatically adjust content across devices. Fluid grids use proportion-based sizing rather than fixed pixels. Media queries apply different CSS styles depending on screen width, targeting resolutions like 320px, 480px, etc. The conclusion recommends hiring a professional responsive web design company to create a single responsive site that works across devices.

Mobile devices have become the dominant way users access websites. Many large companies still have websites that are not optimized for mobile. According to a website validator, popular sites like Target, Verizon, Amazon, and Best Buy scored very low in mobile friendliness. Even cutting-edge websites scored low. To have a mobile-friendly site, businesses should use responsive design, evaluate their content management system, and use the W3C validator regularly to identify and address issues. Following these guidelines will help small businesses have mobile sites that outperform some large companies.

The Fetch API is a modern replacement of the XMLHTTPRequest object. It is based on promises and makes making AJAX/API calls easier to manage and code. This slide deck is a quick introduction to the API.

Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are websites that utilize modern web capabilities to deliver native app-like experiences to users. PWAs are built using common web technologies including HTTPS, service workers, and web app manifests. Service workers allow PWAs to work offline by caching app assets and responding to fetch events. When installed on a user's homescreen, PWAs can load quickly and feel like native applications while retaining the benefits of the web such as being discoverable, installable, and updatable.

Progressive Web Apps (PWAs) are websites that utilize modern web features to deliver native app-like experiences to users. The minimum requirements for a PWA are that it is served over HTTPS, includes a web app manifest, and registers a service worker. Service workers allow PWAs to work offline by handling fetch events and caching assets. While adding a PWA to a user's home screen can improve engagement, the true battleground is changing user perception of the capabilities of web apps versus native apps.

Website speed is a crucial aspect of on page SEO everyone can control. Your goal is to be interactive in under 3 seconds, even on a basic phone over a 3G connection. However, most web sites have so many requests and large payloads this time limit or budget cannot be achieved. In fact, the average web page takes 22 seconds to load, according to Google's research. But what if I told you there is a way to offload or even avoid loading page assets until they are needed? This can give your website a distinct advantage over your competition because not only will Google like your pages better so will your visitors!

Progressive Web Applications are a new way to think about using the web to provide great user experiences using the best web platform features. The education market has many opportunities to benefit their communities using PWAs to deliver information and application experiences across all devices and platforms.
