Optimizing your web application's performance is crucial for delivering a seamless user experience. Here are key strategies to enhance speed, scalability, and efficiency:

⚙️ 1. Leverage Caching Effectively

  • Use browser caching with Cache-Control headers to reduce server load.
  • Implement CDN (Content Delivery Network) for faster global content delivery.

  • Eliminate render-blocking resources with asynchronous loading.

📊 3. Database Best Practices

  • Optimize query performance by using indexes and avoiding N+1 problems.
  • Regularly clean up unused data to maintain database efficiency.
  • Use ORM (Object-Relational Mapping) wisely to balance speed and readability.

🌐 4. Network Optimization

  • Prioritize critical resources for faster initial load times.
