@kespeart @ShopifyEng We focused on this because we thought it was the right thing to do. It's our responsibility to offer a fast experience to merchants no matter what device they are using. Areas like checkout or storefront might have a clearer correlation between performance and conversions.

I got to write a bit about some of the work my team at @Shopify has been doing around web performance.

I'm finally taking a stab at understanding the Web Audio API. It's a bit intimidating. What the hell is a biquad filter?

[Darren Hebner @darrenhebner]

Alright, we've got sound. So far we are just loading in an mp3 from a URL and playing it.

The @Shopify Montreal office now has a simulated 3G WiFi network for easy access to real-world testing! Thank you @slightlylate for the recommended throttling config! 400kbps never felt so good 🤓

[Niko @nikolasklein]

I've been working on a plugin to bring @Shopify's design system closer to the designer. It takes the layer names from Sketch to automatically search through Polaris. Turns out it might be helpful for developers too.
