About this talk

What the session covered.

At WordCamp Skopje 2023, Vineet focused on the specific decisions that separate well-performing WordPress sites from those that look complete but underperform in production.

The session walked through Core Web Vitals metrics in the context of real WordPress builds, with attention to what changes at each level of technical maturity.

Recording and slides are available.
