Lazy Loading Because I'm Lazy
The document discusses optimizing JavaScript applications through lazy loading techniques to reduce page load times and improve user experience. It emphasizes the importance of loading core frameworks efficiently and managing dependencies to avoid complexity, along with evaluating application performance using tools like YSlow and Firebug. Suggested improvements include simplifying code management and using existing libraries like RequireJS for effective script loading.

Evolution of javascriptapplication optimization <head> <script> code </script> </head> Many separate script file as separate resources (cacheable) Far futures expires headers, e-tags Reduce requests: minification and concatenation Serve from static, “cookieless” domains, CDNs We’re still slow....what’s next?

Big ball of mud Hard to maintain development vs. production systems (dev mode with separate files, build process, versioning, etc)
- 4. The solution: lazyload Always load core javascript framework (jquery + your framework/bootstrap) You don’t have a framework??? Lazy load models and controllers based upon interaction Don’t have an MVC framework? coremvc, JavascriptMVC, many others Avoid dependency hell: keep it one-level/ controller based. Don’t “abuse” prototype
- 5. Fine Lines Understand DOMContentLoaded and load events Absolute final “End User” experience. DOMContentLoaded = DOM is ready, loaded. load = all page components have finished loading It matters even for a primed cache, big/many javascript components delay final onload event, causing loading/blocking It takes time to parse & evaluate big javascript files. Caching can’t fix this, users see it
- 6. Possible improvements: whyinvest the time? Increase simplicity “Snappiness”, reduce memory footprint -- less code in memory Hide latency Manage user expectations (users expect to wait when they do some action the first time, but hate waiting on every page load) Evaluate your site metrics (passers-by vs. heavy users), cache rate percentage for

- 9. Desired Outcome Minimal loadingindication across most browsers. “Defer” load until after load or your custom event Good for third party javascripts which may be slow or trigger more blocking requests themselves which continue page loading Die silently, but handle it. Don’t go on like nothing happened; don’t try to use code that didn’t load!
