The Critical Rendering Path is the sequence of steps the browser goes through to convert the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript into pixels on the screen. Optimizing the critical render path improves render performance.The critical rendering path includes the Document Object Model (DOM), CSS Object Model (CSSOM), render tree and layout.

The document object model is created as the HTML is parsed. The HTML may request JavaScript, which may, in turn, alter the DOM. The HTML includes or makes requests for styles, which in turn builds the CSS object model. The browser engine combines the two to create the Render Tree. Layout determines the size and location of everything on the page. Once layout is determined, pixels

This document set contains explanations, examples, and recommendations that focus on low-effort, high-return performance wins. The content is progressive, not cumulative; that is, you don't have to use all of the proposed techniques, nor do you have to use them in any particular order. But the more of them you can apply to your web pages, the better those pages will perform.

• Minify your Code
• Compression
• Reduce library usage

Go to this link https://cloudinary.com/ and create your cloudinary account, verify your email and go through or skip the initial questions

After you are done you should be able to see the following in your dashboard:

• Cloud Name
• API key
• API Secret

Goals: Add links that are reasonable and good explanations of how stuff works. No hype and no vendor content if possible. Practical first-hand accounts of models in prod eagerly sought.

Project management App that allows users to create projects and tasks.

Free O'Reilly books and convenient script to just download them.

How to use:

1. Take the download.sh file and put it into a directory where you want the files to be saved.
2. cd into the directory and make sure that it has executable permissions (chmod +x download.sh should do it)
3. Run ./download.sh and wee there it goes. Also if you do not want all the files, just simply comment the ones you do not want.

##Set-up

• create a heroku account
• install the heroku toolbelt: https://toolbelt.heroku.com/
• log into heroku via the commandline with heroku login and enter your credentials.
• add your AWS (or other) keys to the heroku environment (I did this from the webapp -from your apps list, click on your appname, then Settings > Reveal Config Vars and add your config variables)

##Create your app

• in your terminal, cd to your app on your local machine
