web-performance-auditor

AI-powered web performance auditor for frontend and web developers. Use it to audit a website or web app, diagnose poor Core Web Vitals (LCP, CLS, INP) and low Lighthouse scores, review JavaScript bundle size, code splitting, lazy loading, image and font loading, hydration, React rendering, Next.js/Nuxt patterns, network waterfalls, third-party scripts, and caching. Produces a prioritized, senior-engineer performance audit with a score and concrete fixes.

Examples

Prompt

Can you audit the performance of https://example.com and tell me what needs fixing?

Output

The site exhibits a high LCP of 4.2s, primarily due to a 320 KB hero image that loads late. Recommend converting the image to WebP, implementing lazy loading via `loading="lazy"`, and optimizing server response time to reduce TTFB by 200ms. Additionally, critical CSS blocking render can be reduced by inlining above-the-fold styles, saving approximately 300ms. The total JavaScript payload is 1.8MB; splitting code with dynamic imports and removing unused modules could improve TTI by 15%. Prioritize image optimization and code splitting for immediate impact on Core Web Vitals.

Prompt

Review the web app at https://myapp.com for performance issues and suggest concrete improvements.

Output

Analysis shows a CLS of 0.25 caused by images without size attributes and late-loaded ads injecting content. To fix, specify width/height for all images, and defer ad scripts until after initial paint. The total JavaScript bundle is 2.3MB, with 600KB unminified code; minify and remove unused dependencies. The network waterfall indicates multiple small requests causing overhead; combining small CSS files and enabling HTTP/2 server push can reduce request count and improve load times. Focus on image sizing and reducing JavaScript payload to improve user experience and meet Core Web Vitals thresholds.
