Sections

This file defines all sections, their ordering, impact levels, and descriptions. The section ID (in parentheses) is the filename prefix used to group rules.

1. Eliminating Waterfalls (async)

Impact: CRITICAL Description: Waterfalls are the #1 performance killer. Each sequential await adds full network latency. Eliminating them yields the largest gains.

2. Bundle Size Optimization (bundle)

Impact: CRITICAL Description: Reducing initial bundle size improves Time to Interactive and Largest Contentful Paint.

3. Server-Side Performance (server)

Impact: HIGH Description: Optimizing server-side rendering and data fetching eliminates server-side waterfalls and reduces response times.

4. Client-Side Data Fetching (client)

Impact: MEDIUM-HIGH Description: Automatic deduplication and efficient data fetching patterns reduce redundant network requests.

5. Re-render Optimization (rerender)

Impact: MEDIUM Description: Reducing unnecessary re-renders minimizes wasted computation and improves UI responsiveness.

6. Rendering Performance (rendering)

Impact: MEDIUM Description: Optimizing the rendering process reduces the work the browser needs to do.

7. JavaScript Performance (js)

Impact: LOW-MEDIUM Description: Micro-optimizations for hot paths can add up to meaningful improvements.

8. Advanced Patterns (advanced)

Impact: LOW Description: Advanced patterns for specific cases that require careful implementation.
