## Core Web Vitals Diagnostic Trees
|
|
|
|
### LCP (Largest Contentful Paint) — Target: < 2.5s
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
LCP > 2.5s?
|
|
├─ What is the LCP element?
|
|
│ ├─ Hero image
|
|
│ │ ├─ Using `next/image`? → Yes: check `priority` prop on above-fold images
|
|
│ │ ├─ Image format? → Ensure WebP/AVIF (automatic with next/image)
|
|
│ │ ├─ Image size > 200KB? → Resize to actual display dimensions
|
|
│ │ ├─ Lazy loaded? → Remove `loading="lazy"` for above-fold images
|
|
│ │ └─ CDN serving? → Vercel Image Optimization auto-serves from edge
|
|
│ │
|
|
│ ├─ Text block (heading, paragraph)
|
|
│ │ ├─ Font loading blocking render? → Use `next/font` with `display: swap`
|
|
│ │ ├─ Web font file > 100KB? → Subset to needed characters
|
|
│ │ └─ Font loaded from third-party? → Self-host via `next/font/google`
|
|
│ │
|
|
│ └─ Video / background image
|
|
│ ├─ Use `poster` attribute for video elements
|
|
│ ├─ Preload critical background images with `<link rel="preload">`
|
|
│ └─ Consider replacing video hero with static image + lazy video
|
|
│
|
|
├─ Server response time (TTFB) > 800ms?
|
|
│ ├─ Using SSR for static content? → Switch to SSG or ISR
|
|
│ ├─ Can use Cache Components? → Add `'use cache'` to slow Server Components
|
|
│ ├─ Database queries slow? → Add connection pooling, check query plans
|
|
│ ├─ Edge Config available? → Use for configuration data (< 5ms reads)
|
|
│ └─ Region mismatch? → Deploy function in same region as database
|
|
│
|
|
└─ Render-blocking resources?
|
|
├─ Large CSS file? → Use CSS Modules or Tailwind for tree-shaking
|
|
├─ Synchronous scripts in `<head>`? → Move to `next/script` with `afterInteractive`
|
|
└─ Third-party scripts? → Defer with `next/script strategy="lazyOnload"`
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### INP (Interaction to Next Paint) — Target: < 200ms
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
INP > 200ms?
|
|
├─ Which interaction is slow?
|
|
│ ├─ Button click / form submit
|
|
│ │ ├─ Heavy computation on main thread? → Move to Web Worker
|
|
│ │ ├─ State update triggers large re-render? → Memoize with `useMemo`/`React.memo`
|
|
│ │ ├─ Fetch request blocking UI? → Use `useTransition` for non-urgent updates
|
|
│ │ └─ Server Action slow? → Show optimistic UI with `useOptimistic`
|
|
│ │
|
|
│ ├─ Scroll / resize handlers
|
|
│ │ ├─ No debounce/throttle? → Add `requestAnimationFrame` or debounce
|
|
│ │ ├─ Layout thrashing? → Batch DOM reads, then writes
|
|
│ │ └─ Intersection Observer available? → Replace scroll listeners
|
|
│ │
|
|
│ └─ Keyboard input in forms
|
|
│ ├─ Controlled input re-rendering entire form? → Use `useRef` for form state
|
|
│ ├─ Expensive validation on every keystroke? → Debounce validation
|
|
│ └─ Large component tree updating? → Push `'use client'` boundary down
|
|
│
|
|
├─ Hydration time > 500ms?
|
|
│ ├─ Too many client components? → Audit `'use client'` boundaries
|
|
│ ├─ Large component tree hydrating at once? → Use Suspense for progressive hydration
|
|
│ ├─ Third-party scripts competing? → Defer with `next/script`
|
|
│ └─ Bundle size > 200KB (gzipped)? → See bundle analysis below
|
|
│
|
|
└─ Long tasks (> 50ms) on main thread?
|
|
├─ Profile with Chrome DevTools → Performance tab → identify long tasks
|
|
├─ Break up long tasks with `scheduler.yield()` or `setTimeout`
|
|
└─ Move to Server Components where possible (zero client JS)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
### CLS (Cumulative Layout Shift) — Target: < 0.1
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
CLS > 0.1?
|
|
├─ Images causing layout shift?
|
|
│ ├─ Missing `width`/`height`? → Always set dimensions (next/image does this)
|
|
│ ├─ Not using `next/image`? → Migrate to `next/image` for automatic sizing
|
|
│ └─ Aspect ratio changes on load? → Set explicit `aspect-ratio` in CSS
|
|
│
|
|
├─ Fonts causing layout shift?
|
|
│ ├─ Not using `next/font`? → Migrate to `next/font` (zero-CLS font loading)
|
|
│ ├─ FOUT (flash of unstyled text)? → `next/font` with `adjustFontFallback: true`
|
|
│ └─ Custom font metrics off? → Use `size-adjust` CSS property
|
|
│
|
|
├─ Dynamic content injected above viewport?
|
|
│ ├─ Ad banners / cookie banners? → Reserve space with `min-height`
|
|
│ ├─ Async-loaded components? → Use skeleton placeholders with fixed dimensions
|
|
│ └─ Toast notifications? → Position as overlay (fixed/absolute), not in flow
|
|
│
|
|
├─ CSS animations triggering layout?
|
|
│ ├─ Animating `width`, `height`, `top`, `left`? → Use `transform` instead
|
|
│ └─ Use `will-change: transform` for GPU-accelerated animations
|
|
│
|
|
└─ Responsive design shifts?
|
|
├─ Different layouts per breakpoint causing jump? → Use consistent aspect ratios
|
|
└─ Client-side media query check? → Use CSS media queries, not JS `matchMedia`
|
|
```

Report findings as: **Issue** → **Impact** (which CWV affected, by how much) → **Recommendation** (specific code change) → **Expected Improvement** (target metric).

Always reference the **Next.js skill** (`⤳ skill: nextjs`) for framework patterns and the **Observability skill** for monitoring setup.
