## Introduction
|
|
|
|
Performance is crucial for user experience and SEO. In this guide, we'll explore various techniques to optimize your Hugo site for maximum performance.
|
|
|
|
## Asset Optimization
|
|
|
|
### Image Optimization
|
|
|
|
Images often contribute the most to page weight. Here's how to optimize them:
|
|
|
|
{{< code html "layouts/shortcodes/optimized-image.html" >}}
|
|
{{ $image := .Page.Resources.GetMatch (printf "%s" (.Get "src")) }}
|
|
{{ $options := dict "targetWidth" 800 "quality" 85 }}
|
|
{{ $processed := $image.Process "resize 800x webp q85" }}
|
|
<img src="{{ $processed.RelPermalink }}"
|
|
alt="{{ .Get "alt" }}"
|
|
loading="lazy"
|
|
class="rounded-lg shadow-lg">
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
### CSS and JavaScript
|
|
|
|
Minimize your asset footprint:
|
|
- Minify CSS and JavaScript
|
|
- Bundle assets appropriately
|
|
- Remove unused code
|
|
|
|
## Caching Strategies
|
|
|
|
1. **Browser Caching**
|
|
- Set appropriate cache headers
|
|
- Use versioned assets
|
|
- Implement service workers
|
|
|
|
2. **Hugo Caching**
|
|
- Use `.Scratch` for expensive operations
|
|
- Cache partial results
|
|
- Implement memoization
|
|
|
|
## Content Delivery
|
|
|
|
### CDN Setup
|
|
|
|
{{< code toml "config.toml" >}}
|
|
[params.cdn]
|
|
enable = true
|
|
provider = "cloudfront"
|
|
domain = "cdn.example.com"
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
### Edge Computing
|
|
|
|
Leverage edge computing for faster content delivery:
|
|
- Deploy to multiple regions
|
|
- Use edge functions when needed
|
|
- Implement geo-routing
|
|
|
|
## Performance Monitoring
|
|
|
|
### Key Metrics
|
|
|
|
1. **Core Web Vitals**
|
|
- Largest Contentful Paint (LCP)
|
|
- First Input Delay (FID)
|
|
- Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS)
|
|
|
|
2. **Additional Metrics**
|
|
- Time to First Byte (TTFB)
|
|
- First Contentful Paint (FCP)
|
|
- Total Blocking Time (TBT)
|
|
|
|
## Advanced Optimization Techniques
|
|
|
|
### Resource Hints
|
|
|
|
{{< code html "layouts/partials/head.html" >}}
|
|
<link rel="preconnect" href="https://fonts.googleapis.com">
|
|
<link rel="preload" href="/fonts/main.woff2" as="font" type="font/woff2" crossorigin>
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
### Critical CSS
|
|
|
|
Inline critical styles for faster rendering:
|
|
|
|
{{< code html "layouts/partials/critical-css.html" >}}
|
|
<style>
|
|
/* Critical CSS here */
|
|
.hero { /* ... */ }
|
|
.nav { /* ... */ }
|
|
</style>
|
|
{{< /code >}}
|
|
|
|
## SEO Optimization
|
|
|
|
1. **Structured Data**
|
|
2. **XML Sitemaps**
|
|
3. **Meta Tags**
|
|
|
|
