Summary


In this chapter, we have discussed the importance of cache and how the caching mechanism works. Having a proper caching plan can boost up your site performance immensely. After this, I have explained how a developer should call JavaScript and CSS files and why we should avoid empty source and link attributes. Then, I have gave a brief introduction to CSS and JavaScript frameworks. These frameworks are really powerful, and we can use their advanced technology for our benefit. In the later part of the chapter, I have explained how we can optimize JavaScript to gain performance and why we should load what is needed. Finally, I have discussed the importance of reducing DOM elements.

In the next chapter, I will discuss how to monitor and debug issues in an application or mobile website.
