Road to 100/100 on PageSpeed Insight (Part 1)
Advanced Angular Material app based on Firebase VS PageSpeed Insight

People who follow me know I have a side hustle project. It’s an app where teams can estimate tasks using planning poker, conduct retrospectives, and check technical skills during online interviews for free. It’s an Angular application that uses Firebase under the hood. And to be SEO-friendly, I pre-render pages before each app deployment.

- Angular 13
- Angular Material 13
- AngularFire 7 in compatibility after migration from v6
- Firebase 9 in compatibility mode after migration from v8
- Firebase Realtime database + Users authentication
- Firebase anonymous…
