I feel like I've picked up some good refactoring skills over the years. But after going through @martinfowler's "Refactoring" for the past few weeks, it feels like the missing piece and offers sophisticated approach to the craft. Great book!

shortlist of the wins that we've seen at @HubSpotDev so: 1. ship less code 2. defer code thats slow to execute 3. reduce network requests 4. put critical network requests in inline scripts so data is present when your bundle loads 5. defer non-critical requests 6. everything else
