Critical Rendering Path

The Critical Rendering Path is the sequence of steps a web browser takes to turn a webpage’s code into what you see and interact with on your screen. It involves gathering the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript files, parsing and applying styles, and rendering the content visually. Optimizing this process helps webpages load faster, making for a smoother user experience. Essentially, it’s the roadmap that guides how quickly and efficiently a website appears after you click a link or enter a URL.
