Your app could be 50% faster with one simple fix. And most developers completely ignore it. Ready? Image optimization. That’s it. Not AI. Not some new JS framework. Just… resizing, compressing, and properly loading your images. Why does it matter? Because images often make up 60–70% of a page’s weight. And when you skip optimization, your app moves like a 90s dial-up connection. I’ve seen apps cut load times in half just by swapping high-res PNGs for compressed JPEGs or WebP. But here’s what usually happens: → Devs tweak backend logic for hours → Chase framework performance gains → Meanwhile, users are stuck watching a spinning loader And every second they wait? You’re losing: ❌ Conversions ❌ Credibility ❌ Cash Before you start tearing apart your stack, ask this: Have we optimized the basics? Because sometimes, the difference between “good” and “great” is just a smaller file size. 👉 Follow David Robinson for no-fluff engineering advice that makes your software faster, leaner, and built to scale.
