Analyze web pages with Yslow
Yahoo! has released a new firefox extension which measures site performance based on rules for high performance websites. Requirements to install Yslow are :
In return Yslow will give you
- Performance report card
- HTTP/HTML summary
- List of components in the page
- Tools including JSLint
As the name suggest, Yslow will tell you “Why your website is slow”. Yslow sits in the firebug main menu.
To measure a site’s performance, just install Yslow & click on the performance tab inside Firebug or click on the Yslow icon in the status bar. Yslow also adds JSLint in the tools menu.
