What you need to know about Core Web Vitals

Back in May 2020, Google introduced Core Web Vitals as factors to measure user experience. With their positive score proving a good user experience as well as boosting search engine rank, their optimization instantly became one of the main focus areas in the world of web development.

In this session, I will provide you with a current overview of the metrics, including a deep dive into the INP, the newest metric that will start counting as of March 2024, as well as the newest techniques on how to bring them (and keep them) in the green zone.

Sustainable web design

Sustainable web design is an approach to designing digital products and services that are conscious of lowering carbon emissions by becoming more efficient. The internet may be digital, but it runs on electricity, much of which is still produced by fossil fuel.
The choices we make in designing digital Products, from UX and development to the servers we use can have a carbon cost and can contribute to global Greenhouse gases.
Let's talk about the first steps we can take to reduce carbon emissions by making small changes to how we host, design and develop our digital products.

Introducing the W3C Web Sustainability Guidelines

Sustainable web design is an approach to designing digital products and services that are conscious of lowering carbon emissions by becoming more efficient. The internet may be digital, but it runs on electricity, much of which is still produced by fossil fuel.

The choices we make in designing digital Products, from UX and development to the servers we use can have a carbon cost and can contribute to global Greenhouse gases. To help with this topic, in August last year, W3C released first draft of Sustainable Web Guidelines and they have been evolving and helping community ever since.

As a part of W3C Sustainable Web Community Group, I got to work on these guidelines and would love give a sneak peak into its development process and show how to best leverage them to design digital products that put people and planet first.

Reducing the carbon footprint of your website

Even though digital sounds and feels green, reality is much different. Digital technologies are actually responsible for about 4% of carbon emissions, while air travel accounts for 2.5% and the whole country of India for 7%. How we design and develop our websites can have a huge impact on the overall carbon footprint of the Internet.
In this session, I would like to show you how to measure your website's carbon footprint and provide you with some design and development strategies to help reduce it.
