Enable text-based compression
Compressed assets download faster, reducing the time to first paint and improving the overall perceived performance, especially on slower mobile networks.
Quick Reference
- Use Gzip or Brotli to compress text resources (HTML, JS, CSS)
- Brotli provides superior compression for modern browsers
- Significantly reduces data transfer size and load times
- Compression helps network cost, but it does not remove parse and execution cost from oversized bundles
Check
Verify that text-based resources are served with Content-Encoding: gzip or br headers.
Fix
Enable Gzip or Brotli compression in your web server (Nginx, Apache) or CDN settings.
Explain
Explain how text-based compression works and its impact on asset delivery speed.
Code Review
Review the routes, assets, and loading behavior that affect Enable text-based compression. Flag exact files, requests, or rendering steps that add unnecessary network, CPU, or layout cost, and describe the measurement method used to confirm the issue.
For full implementation details, code examples, and framework-specific guidance, see references/rule.md.
