Let’s me discuss:
Magento 2 image optimization :
Image optimization is very important for speeding up your website. We can optimize the images using GT metrix. Generate the latest performance report of your website.
- Now, Go to the “Structure” tab as per the above image and open the “Serve images in next-gen formats” tab. You can check the optimized images of your website. You can use those images and replace your website.
Especially For Magento, There are many extensions available for image optimization. You can check the magento marketplace available image optimization extension.
I suggest you use 👉 MagePlaza Image optimization
Enable Merge CSS, JavaScript in Magento 2:
We can merge the CSS, javascript file using the admin panel in Magento 2. Open the admin panel.
Note:
Make sure, You need to enable the developer mode before switching to backend using below command.
“Php bin/magento deploy:mode:set developer”
Now, Go to the “Store - Configuration” Open the Advanced tab and click on the “Developer” link.
After opening the Developer tab, You need to open the JavaScript Settings as per the below screenshot.
Make enabled below tabs.
- Merge JavaScript Files
- Enable JavaScript Bundling
- Minify JavaScript Files.
- Move JS code to the bottom of the page.
Now, click on the CSS Settings tab as per the below screenshot.
Make enabled below tabs.
- Merge CSS Files.
- Minify CSS Files.
Now, Done all the settings, then click on the “Save Config” top right button.
Enabled the Flat Categories and Products:
- Go to the Stores->Configuration and open the Catalog tab.
- Then, Open the “Storefront” tab as per the above screenshot. Enabled both and click on the “Save Config” button.
Note : Make sure to always enable the cache. Sometimes it takes more time for website load.
“Php bin/magento cache:clean”
- When you move a website to a live server, you always need to use the production mode.
Cmd command : php bin/magento deploy:mode:set production
