Not sure lol. I feel like I focused on performance from the beginning of the build? Made sure the client kept things down to a minimum?
Site is hosted on WP Engine (I’ve seen faster though), so they do caching and stuff like that. We’re also using their CDN as well, so that’s why the images are pretty quick.
Cool, good to know. I’ve never used WP Engine before.
I’ve had trouble getting TTFB anywhere below 1.8-2s without caching in place on MediaTemple’s shared hosting…I don’t care for the caching plugins out there. Didn’t realize WP Engine did caching as part of their hosting plans.
Gotta study up on performance regardless. Anyway. Nice work!
Thanks @benword! Always a pleasure to develop in the Roots workflow. Your avatar hints at Moab, my second favorite place! Also a fan of the FJs (first vehicle was a 1970 FJ40). Looking forward to your book and finding some hidden gems that we didn’t know about.
I’m one of the developers at the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences in Sydney.
We started off with Bedrock and a mangled version of Roots Theme with Gulp shoe-horned in. We’ve since updated it to Sage and incorporated Bedrock Ansible too.
Dude. My wife loves Emily Henderson. She refers to her as “Emily”, as though they were friends. As such, I’ve read more Emily Henderson posts than I’d care to admit. Had no idea it was a Sage theme. Nice work!
