Web designers must see! Google opens the tips and tools to accelerate the website performance
Vic Gundotra, Google Vice President of engineering department, said in last month that “the internet has won” which expresses the future trend is to standardise website applications and its developments. Hence Google launched a website for web developers to learn how to increase the speed performance of website.
Google’s senior engineers, Urs Hoelzle and Bill Coughran noted in their blog. “In the past few years, through continuous experiment, we have found that some practices which can speed up the web page, we now organize all these teaching contents, tools and tips on our website code.google.com to share with web designers.”
The website’s teaching includes CSS optimisation, gzip compression, HTTP cache and some tricks to make web page download speed faster.
Hoelzle and Coughran pointed out that many website protocols are developed before popularise of rich internet application (RIA). And HTML 5 as an example, these protocols is used to speed up the web browser to access the websites.
“Some of its functions, such as AppCache, allow web developers to write JavaScript programs with a large number of web applications, and still running as fast as the desktop applications”
