Active Priority Projects

Investigate INP Improvements

  • No updates this week

Improving the calculation of image size attributes

  • @joemcgill we’re still working through some details on the approach for incorporating layout info for ancestor blocks and hope to have an update later this week.

Enable Client Side Modern Image Generation

  • @swissspidy Nothing new really from my side since last week. A couple of smaller PRs got merged into GB, and I’m ironing out some build tooling issues. Apart from that, focusing on my WCUS talk

Enhance Onboarding Experience of Performance Lab Plugin

  • @flixos90 The only news on enhancing the onboarding experience is that we’re going to ask attendees at the Google booth at WCUS to give Performance Lab a spin. We hope that from there we get a diverse list of people, especially including ones that have not used the plugin before. That should help us get some idea on what people consider pain points in the onboarding process.

Open Floor

  • @swissspidy Performance chat sometimes clashes with release parties (like today). Should we consider moving the meeting on those occasions? e.g. by +1 hour or so. Or not a big deal?
    • @joemcgill I’m unsure how many of the release parties for this major release will happen at the usual time, given the timezone makeup of the team. I think @peterwilsoncc was planning on publishing a schedule for betas/RCs soon. Perhaps something to consider after that?
  • Suggestion to cancel next week’s meeting due to WordCamp US

Our next chat will be held on Tuesday, September 24, 2024 at 15:00 UTC in the #core-performance channel in Slack.
