Optimization

Priority: P1 (HIGH)

Core optimization primitives provided by Next.js. Monitor First, Optimize Later.

Monitoring (Core Web Vitals)

Before applying optimizations, identify bottlenecks using:

  • LCP (Largest Contentful Paint): Initial load speed. Target < 2.5s.
  • CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift): Visual stability. Target < 0.1.
  • INP (Interaction to Next Paint): Responsiveness. Target < 200ms.
  • Tools: Chrome DevTools "Performance" tab, next/speed-insights, or React Profiler.

Images (next/image)

  • Pattern: Always use next/image to prevent CLS. Use priority for LCP images.
  • Responsive: Use sizes (e.g., (max-width: 768px) 100vw, 33vw) to avoid downloading oversized images.
  • Constraints:
    • Remote domains must be in next.config.js remotePatterns.
    • Use placeholder="blur" for local images (automatic) or remote (manual blurDataURL).
    • Use fill with object-fit for parent-relative sizing.

Fonts (next/font)

  • Strategy: Self-host Google Fonts or local files via next/font.
  • Optimization: Zero layout shift, no network requests for font files at runtime. Apply classes to <body> or specific elements.

Metadata (SEO)

  • Static: Export metadata object from layout.tsx or page.tsx.

    tsx
    export const metadata: Metadata = {
      title: 'Dashboard',
      description: '...',
    };
    
  • Dynamic: Export generateMetadata({ params }) function.

    tsx
    export async function generateMetadata({ params }) {
      const product = await getProduct(params.id);
      return { title: product.name };
    }
    
  • Open Graph: Use openGraph key for social cards.

Scripts (next/script)

  • Loading Strategy: Control when 3rd party scripts load.
    • strategy="afterInteractive" (Default): Google Analytics.
    • strategy="lazyOnload": Chat widgets, low priority.
