Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

lighthouse-plugin-crux

A Lighthouse plugin that displays the field performance of your page. It uses real-world data from Chrome UX Report and Core Web Vitals to estimate the score.

An example report for github.com/GoogleChrome/lighthouse:

An image with the result of an execution using the lighthouse-plugin-crux

This plugin adds Core Web Vitals values to your Lighthouse report. The CrUX Performance category includes real-user data provided by Chrome UX Report. It's similar to the field section in PageSpeed Insights but it uses the Chrome User Experience Report API instead of the PageSpeed Insights API. This API is faster than the PSI API since it doesn't need run a full lighthouse run to give the results.

The scoring algorithm weighs values for Largest Contentful Paint (LCP), First Input Delay (FID), and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS) and picks a minimum score. It uses Core Web Vitals assessment that expects all its metrics to pass thresholds. For example, https://edition.cnn.com/ has LCP 5.9 s (15), FID 20 ms (100), and CLS 0.02 (100). It has poor mark in the Search Console, and the score is 15. (Note: FCP and the origin values do not affect the score, see the source)

Check out the parity between Field & Lab performance on mobile:

And on desktop:

Sometimes field data is missing because a URL doesn't have enough anonymous traffic. In this case, the lab data is the only available measurement.

Install

Requires Node.js 20+ and Lighthouse 10+.

$ npm install lighthouse lighthouse-plugin-crux

Usage

Use the plugin with Lighthouse CLI:

$ npx lighthouse https://www.apple.com/ --plugins=lighthouse-plugin-crux

If you are using the --only-categories option in the CLI, you need to add the lighthouse-plugin-crux category to it:

$ npx lighthouse https://www.apple.com/ --plugins=lighthouse-plugin-crux --only-categories=performance,lighthouse-plugin-crux

Provide your Chrome User Experience Report token to run more requests (in production) with a custom config:

$ npx lighthouse https://www.apple.com/ --config-path=./config.js

config.js

export default {
  extends: 'lighthouse:default',
  plugins: ['lighthouse-plugin-crux'],
  settings: {
    cruxToken: 'YOUR_REAL_TOKEN',
  },
}
