Overview
Back to topQuicklink for Magento 2 attempts to make navigation to subsequent pages load faster. Embedded with the plugin is a javascript library, which detects links in the viewport, waits until the browser is idle, and prefetches the URLs for these links. The library also tries to detect, if the user is on a slow connection or on a data plan.
This plugin builds heavily on the amazing work done by Google Chrome Labs.
Features
- Detects links within the viewport (using Intersection Observer)
- Waits until the browser is idle (using requestIdleCallback)
- Checks if the user isn’t on a slow connection (using navigator.connection.effectiveType) or has data-saver enabled (using navigator.connection.saveData)
- Prefetches URLs to the links (using <link rel=prefetch> or XHR). Provides some control over the request priority (can switch to fetch() if supported).
Demo
Here's a WebPageTest run for our demo improving page-load performance by up to 4 seconds via quicklink's prefetching. A video comparison of the before/after prefetching is on YouTube.
FAQ
Will this make my store faster?
Yes and no. This plugin has no impact on the actual performance of your website. But navigating the website will feel faster because potential navigation targets of the user have been prefetched in the user's browser.
What do I need to know?
You have to run it with the cache enabled, to avoid the prefetch of uncached pages.
