What to act on · top recommendations

Add decoding="async" to non-critical images

0 / 100

The page has 1 image (out of 1) without a decoding hint. Add decoding="async" to non-critical images so the browser can decode them off the main thread.

Serve images in modern formats (AVIF, WebP)

0 / 100

The page ships 1 image (out of 1) in JPEG/PNG/GIF without a modern alternative. Wrap them in a <picture> with a <source type="image/avif"> or "image/webp" before the legacy <img>, or serve modern formats from your image pipeline directly. AVIF and WebP usually deliver 25–50% smaller files at the same quality.

Avoid CPU Long Tasks

60 / 100

The page has 2 CPU long tasks with the total of 285 ms. The total blocking time is 0 ms and 2 long tasks before first contentful paint with total time of 285 ms. However the CPU Long Task is depending on the computer/phones actual CPU speed, so you should measure this on the same type of the device that your user is using. Use Geckoprofiler for Firefox or Chromes tracelog to debug your long tasks.

Why was rendering delayed?

Rendering was not meaningfully delayed. First paint landed at 372 ms on a 15 ms first byte.

Render blocking requests

2 requests · 10.9 KB

Blocking requests delay both paints: the browser renders nothing until they arrive, so they push First Contentful Paint and everything after it, including the largest paint (LCP). Requests that block the parser inside the body stall everything after them in the document. Load JavaScript with defer or async, and keep non-critical CSS off the critical path with media attributes. Bars show when each request loaded on a clock that runs to the last paint; the gap after the bars is style and layout work.

infoAdd decoding="async" to non-critical imagesdecodingAsync

The page has 1 image (out of 1) without a decoding hint. Add decoding="async" to non-critical images so the browser can decode them off the main thread.

Setting decoding="async" on an <img> tells the browser it can decode the image off the main thread, which keeps the page responsive to user interactions while images are being processed. The default ("auto") leaves the choice to the browser. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Element/img#decoding

AVIF and WebP routinely deliver 25–50% smaller files than JPEG and PNG at the same perceived quality, and every browser version still under support understands at least one of them. Ship modern formats either through a <picture> element with <source type="image/avif"> / "image/webp" entries in front of the legacy <img>, or directly from a content-negotiating image pipeline that returns AVIF / WebP when the client accepts it. https://web.dev/articles/serve-images-webp

warn(70)Apply the right priority hints to the LCP imagelcpImageHints

The LCP image is missing fetchpriority="high". Adding it tells the browser to fetch the image with high priority instead of the default heuristic (which often deprioritises hero images that are loaded after the HTML has been parsed).

When the Largest Contentful Paint element is an image, the browser priority hints applied to that element directly affect the LCP metric. The image must NOT be loading="lazy" (that defers the fetch until near-viewport, which is the opposite of what an LCP image needs) and SHOULD be fetchpriority="high" (so the browser fetches it with high priority instead of guessing). https://web.dev/articles/fetch-priority

infoLong cache headers is goodcacheHeadersLong

The page has 4 requests that have a shorter cache time than one year (but still a cache time).

Setting a cache header is good. Setting a long cache header (a year) is even better because the asset will stay in the browser cache across visits. For content-hashed URLs (e.g. app.4af2.css) you can safely use Cache-Control: max-age=31536000, immutable. For unversioned URLs that may change, use a revalidating strategy instead.

warn(50)Set a sensible viewport meta tagviewport

The viewport meta tag does not contain width=device-width, the browser may use a desktop-width fallback.

The viewport meta tag tells the browser how to lay out the page on small screens. Without it (or without width=device-width) the page is rendered at a desktop fallback width and scaled down, which makes text unreadable on mobile. Disabling zoom (user-scalable=no, maximum-scale<=1) is also an accessibility regression. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML/Viewport_meta_tag

warn(0)Declare a referrer policy on the documentreferrerPolicy

No <meta name="referrer"> tag was found on the page. Set a Referrer-Policy response header (preferred) or add a meta tag, for example <meta name="referrer" content="strict-origin-when-cross-origin">.

Without an explicit referrer policy the browser falls back to the user-agent default and may leak the full URL of the previous page (including query strings) to every cross-origin request. Set a Referrer-Policy response header (preferred) or a <meta name="referrer"> tag in the document. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Referrer-Policy

warn(0)Use a strict Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate cross-site scripting (XSS) attacks.contentSecurityPolicyHeader

Set a Content-Security-Policy header to mitigate cross-site scripting attacks. You can start with a Content-Security-Policy-Report-Only header, which only reports violations rather than blocking them.

A Content-Security-Policy response header tells the browser which sources of script, style, and other content are allowed. The most effective form is a strict CSP using nonces or hashes together with strict-dynamic; the worst is a missing header, with unsafe-inline and unsafe-eval close behind. https://web.dev/articles/strict-csp

infoSet a Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy header so cross-origin subresources opt in to being embedded.crossOriginEmbedderPolicyHeader

Set a Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy header (typically require-corp or credentialless) on the document response to control cross-origin embedding.

Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy (COEP) makes the page refuse to load cross-origin subresources unless they explicitly opt in via CORP or CORS. Together with Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy it puts the page in a cross-origin isolated context, which mitigates cross-window side-channel attacks (Spectre) and unlocks high-resolution timers and SharedArrayBuffer. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy

Offenders
warn(0)Set a Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy header to isolate the page from cross-origin windows.crossOriginOpenerPolicyHeader

Set a Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy header (typically same-origin) on the document response to isolate the page from cross-origin windows.

Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy (COOP) lets a page sever its window-group ties to cross-origin documents that opened it or that it opens. Together with Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy it puts the page in a cross-origin isolated context, which mitigates cross-window side-channel attacks (Spectre) and unlocks high-resolution timers and SharedArrayBuffer. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cross-Origin-Opener-Policy

infoSet a Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy header to limit who may embed the page.crossOriginResourcePolicyHeader

Set a Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy header (same-origin, same-site or cross-origin) on the document response to limit who may embed it.

Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy (CORP) is a per-response opt-in that tells the browser which origins are allowed to embed the resource. It blocks cross-origin or cross-site no-cors embedding (img, script, iframe, etc.) and is one of the building blocks of cross-origin isolation. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Cross-Origin-Resource-Policy

Offenders
warn(0)Set a Permissions-Policy header to control which browser features the page can use.permissionsPolicyHeader

Set a Permissions-Policy header to control which browser features the page can use.

The Permissions-Policy response header (the successor to Feature-Policy) lets a site explicitly opt in or out of powerful browser features such as camera, microphone, geolocation, payment and clipboard. Setting a strict policy reduces the attack surface and limits what embedded third parties can do. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/Permissions-Policy

Offenders
warn(0)Set a referrer-policy header to make sure you do not leak user information.referrerPolicyHeader

Set a referrer-policy header to make sure you do not leak user information.

Referrer Policy is a new header that allows a site to control how much information the browser includes with navigations away from a document and should be set by all sites. https://scotthelme.co.uk/a-new-security-header-referrer-policy/.

warn(0)Set X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff to stop the browser from MIME-sniffing the response.xContentTypeOptionsHeader

Set X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff on the document response to prevent MIME-sniffing.

X-Content-Type-Options: nosniff prevents browsers from interpreting files as a different MIME type than what is declared in the Content-Type header. This blocks a class of cross-site scripting and content-type confusion attacks and should be set on every response. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTTP/Headers/X-Content-Type-Options
