How We Cut Our Frontend Load Time by 70 Percent

Performance is a feature. When your CRM takes five seconds to load, sales reps lose momentum. We set a target: every page interactive within one second.

Key Optimizations

  • Route-level code splitting — each page loads only the JavaScript it needs
  • Component-level lazy loading for heavy widgets
  • Server-side rendering with client-side hydration
  • Image optimization pipeline with automatic WebP conversion
  • Prefetching based on navigation patterns
  • Tree-shaking and dead-code elimination

The takeaway

Performance optimization is not a one-time project. We now have automated performance budgets that fail the build if any route exceeds our thresholds.
