Challenge
At the end of April 2019, Adam Broadway from platformOS reached out to us to help his team with the front-end coding of the home and inner pages of their Documentation site. PlatformOS is a limitless model-based API-driven development platform, to build marketplaces, CRM, CMS and any SaaS business solutions with Enterprise Grade DevOps infrastructure provided ‘out of the box’. Having completed a successful front-end project with them in 2018, we were happy to see them coming back to us. PlatformOS came with their own designs, so it was just the front-end development that they needed done. However, they had an important ask for us. They wanted us to keep their outstanding Page Speed Score intact on the new pages:
Solution
Nate, one of our senior project managers, took on the task and his team did not miss to deliver. The project was scheduled for delivery within 6 days and required the following techniques and technologies: Retina Displays Optimization HTML5 / CSS BEM Methodology Bootstrap 4 SASS Jarvis WebPack Template SSI (Server Side Includes) BrowserSyncs Commented Markup Custom Fonts Rollovers/Hovers CSS Transitions CSS Sprites When building a website where PageSpeed is essential, we’re guided by the best industry practices to hit the highest possible PageSpeed score - enable compression, minify HTML, CSS and JavaScript, reduce redirects, etc.
Results
A few days later Adam messaged us back that they have integrated the newly coded pages into a test site and that the PageSpeed score stays intact. A couple of days later they deployed them to production.
