Chisel A WordPress Development Framework

Performance

Chisel aims to offer great performance out-of-box. The rest is up to you.

JavaScript

JavaScript bundle is minified and deferred.

The file name is revisioned. A content hash is appended to the filename (eg. app-93d2daf7a3.bundle.js) so you can set up content caching in the far future.

CSS

CSS styles are concatenated to one file and minified.

The file name is revisioned. A content hash is appended to the filename (eg. main-93d2daf7a3.css) so you can set up content caching in the far future.

WordPress

  • jQuery is not included by default
  • Disable Emojis plugin is installed
  • static resources (CSS, JS, images) are served with far-future expires headers to leverage browser caching
  • we recommned using WordPress hosting which uses a proxy cache (eg. Pantheon) or a cache plugin which generates static HTML files like WP Rocket
