Optimistic Navigation: Boost Perceived Performance
Slow websites drive away users. Even well-optimized websites can suffer from slow navigation due to poor internet connection or server overload. Achieving consistently fast navigation is a challenging task. Optimizations like prefetching or AI-driven prerendering can improve navigation but can be inconsistent and resource-intensive. Optimistic navigation goes the other way and aims to create the illusion that the content is already loaded instead of wasteful preloading.
