README.md

This plugin was a prototype designed for developers and site administrators looking to improve a specific performance metric, Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), by adjusting how the browser loads certain scripts. It is now obsolete as its functionality was integrated into the core platform starting with version 6.9. The tool worked by modifying script tags to include the fetchpriority="low" attribute.

  • Targeted Script Adjustment: Specifically adds the fetchpriority="low" attribute to script modules for the Interactivity API and the comment-reply script, instructing the browser to load them with a lower priority.
  • LCP Performance Focus: The primary goal was to improve the LCP metric, a Core Web Vital that measures when the main content of a page becomes visible.
  • Core Implementation Prototype: This plugin served as a working test to validate the performance improvement before the feature was officially added to the platform's core codebase.
  • Direct HTML Modification: The plugin altered the final HTML output of pages, adding the attribute directly to the relevant <script> and <link> tags without requiring manual template edits.
  • Obsolete Status: The plugin is archived and no longer necessary for sites running platform version 6.9 or higher, as the performance enhancement is now native.
