Web.dev is the ultimate resource for developers of all backgrounds to learn, create, and solve on the web. It's meant to not only educate developers, but help them apply what they've learned to any site they work on, be it personal or business.

I really like how easy this is to understand even for non-developers 😍 Great job @paul_irish and team πŸ‘

@paul_irish or @hdjirdeh What's the main differentiation between what web.dev offers, and what's available via the 'Audits' tab in Chrome's console (>v.60)? They both use the same version of Lighthouse, right?

@hdjirdeh Hi! I really like the way product presents analytics on the website's performance in a readable format. I'd like to ask: does web.dev analyze a single page or the entire website?

I am using this tool only from today, but I absolutely like it for its design and effectiveness. As a user, I feel they have approached my needs with an appropriate level of professionalism and empathy. Thanks to creators :)

Pros:

Insights are categorized by potential impact. It's VERY useful.

Cons:

Sometimes it breaks.

Have patience try twice if it shows some error or open your website, go to inspect element setting and from there click on audit tab, both are same, thereafter you can check over to this website, which has beautiful UI/UX.

Pros:

Provides best metrics and areas to improve your website to take you a light year ahead.

Cons:

It shows some error if you analyse your website first time.

This product already exists in developer console. Open chrome, Press F12, go to Network tab and select audit. It the same tool and mechanism that existed for past 2 years.

Pros:

None

Cons:

None

Still quite buggy but looking forward to using this once it is ready and out of beta. Currently the issue with HTTP/2 makes it not so great for use on any of the sites on my server.

This is a useful tool from Google. Since it comes from Google, I will find it easier to convince clients of it's credentials and usefulness.

Based on a quick study for a couple of sites we handle, it throws out decent quick wins.

I would like to see simplification of jargon/ techspeak so it is more useful in a non tech setting.

Pros:

It combines site speed with SEO analytics in an easily understood dash. It also has action points.

Cons:

Some of the pointers might get too technical for a client. Download of a report is not in PDF but HTML format!

I would say that it is good, but so far, it doesn't bring anything more than the lighthouse analyse available in the dev tools provided by Google Chome. I'm waiting so see more features implemented as it is only a first beta version.

LIGHTHOUSE browser integration is now looking nice and easily accessible over web.dev. A single stop indicator to draw better ideas to improve overall site score indeed.

Your site is spitting out your internal file path ( projects/webdotdevsite/databases/(default)/documents/meta/)

Pros:

Ideas is Great

Cons:

Not working for me
