The Wingify SmartCode got even better in the latest version of 2.1, with key enhancements in your website’s loading speed and seamless user experience. This version particularly benefits websites built on modern JavaScript frameworks like Next.js, Nuxt.js, and Gatsby, besides improving support for tag managers for implementing the SmartCode.
Several factors influenced the enhancement of the SmartCode. We’ve learned them from you and have tried to keep things aligned in your favor:
Reduced Impact on Core Web Vitals, Especially for SSG Sites: We’ve optimized Wingify scripts targeting static site generators (SSGs) such as Gatsby, Next.js, and Nuxt.js, significantly reducing Wingify's impact on your website’s key performance metrics, notably First Contentful Paint (FCP) and Largest Contentful Paint (LCP). These optimizations ensure that websites built with these frameworks can deliver content efficiently, enhancing your website visitors’ experience by minimizing loading times and improving visual stability.
Improved Tag Manager Support: While we strongly recommend installing the SmartCode directly on your website, we understand some accounts utilize tag managers. Hence, we have improved the execution of the SmartCode when it is being implemented on your website via external file sources, like tag managers or cookie consent managers. This eliminates any white flash phenomenon caused by the delay in executing the SmartCode, ensuring a seamless experience from the first page load.
Boosted SmartCode Performance on Firefox: Addressed a specific performance concern where Firefox delayed the loading of third-party resources, impacting the loading of Wingify on your web pages. This ensures that Wingify's resources are loaded and executed more efficiently in Firefox, aligning the performance with other major browsers.
To Whom Does It Matter?
Installing SmartCode 2.1 is completely your decision. However, we’d strongly recommend it for the following cases:
- Accounts whose websites are built on SSG frameworks such as Next.js, Nuxt.js, Gatsby, etc.
- Accounts facing performance concerns related to FCP, LCP, and TBT.
