Above & below-the-fold

jampack optimizes assets above-the-fold ⬆️.

• Images are loaded with higher priority.
• Images are compress as Progressive JPEG.
• Small images are embedded in HTML.

Lazy-load assets below-the-fold ⬇️.

• Images and Iframes are lazy loaded.

See Above-the-fold optimisations for details.

Inline critical CSS

Avoid FOUC while stylesheets are downloaded and parsed. jampack will inline critical CSS and lazy-load the rest of CSS.

See Inline critical CSS for details.

Prefetch links

Speedup the future page navigations by prefetching the links on the page. Thanks to quicklink, this can be done dynamically as links enter the viewport.

See Prefetch links for details.

All assets are compressed

In a 2nd PASS, jampack compresses all untouched assets and keep the same name and the same format.

Extension	Compressor
.html,.htm	html-minifier-terser
.css	lightningCSS
.js	esbuild or swc
.svg	svgo
.jpg,.jpeg	sharp
.png	sharp
.webp	sharp
.avif	sharp

And more!

See Documentation for all feature list and examples.
