Performance
Brotli / gzip compression
Compress HTML, CSS, JS, and JSON over the wire. Brotli beats gzip; gzip beats nothing.
What it is
Content-encoding negotiation: server compresses text payloads, client decompresses. Brotli (RFC 7932) achieves 15–25% better ratios than gzip for HTML and CSS.
Why it matters
First-byte and full-page-load times depend heavily on payload size. Compression is one config flag away on every CDN and origin server.
Who it applies to
Every HTTP response with text content.
