Unleashing Excitement: Introducing the Pet Boutique and Enhancing Security!

Tired of waiting for your websites to load? Or do you want to optimize your own website for faster loading times? Then you've come to the right place. In this tech blog, we will show you some tips on how to optimize your web performance so that your website can load faster.

Before we begin, let's delve into page speed. Basically, page speed refers to how quickly your website's content loads when someone visits it. In today's world, speed is critical in almost everything. It doesn't matter if you have a visually appealing or complex web design; if your website takes forever to load, it won't cut it.

When it comes to page loading speed, every second counts. Research indicates that when loading times increase from one to three seconds, the likelihood of visitors leaving immediately increases by 32 percent. In other words, if your pages can't load within a few seconds or take too long to display essential information, your visitors are likely to lose interest and exit your site.

Another reason why page speed is vital is because it can impact how people perceive you as the website owner and your brand. A slow and unreliable website can make you appear unprofessional, damaging your brand and costing you potential customers. Thus, improving your website's loading speed will have a positive impact on your traffic, user retention, and sales.

The truth is, there are various reasons why your website may load slowly. Essentially, it could be anything, but the most common factors include:

Hotlinking images or other resources from a slow server

There are many things you can do to enhance your page loading times, which I may explain in the next part. In this tech blog, I want to focus on helping you test your page load time and optimize images on your website. According to HTTP Archive, one of the largest contributors to the average website's size is images, making them a significant factor in page loading speed.

Before we delve into optimizing your web performance, it's essential to assess the overall performance of your website. There are various tools available for testing and measuring page speed. However, I recommend starting with a basic one: 

In the report, you'll find a range of performance metrics, such as the visual loading speed (Speed Index) and the time it takes for your page to become fully interactive. As you scroll down, you'll encounter a list of recommendations on how to enhance these metrics. Pay special attention if you come across suggestions like "optimize your images" or other image-related issues, as this blog will provide valuable insights on these topics.

Utilizing these tools to assess your site will undoubtedly highlight areas with potential for improving your web performance. Now, let's explore some straightforward steps to enhance your web performance by optimizing images.

Improve Page Loading Speed by Optimizing Your Images

Now that we both understand the importance of page loading speed and how to measure it, it's time to explore some simple yet effective methods to enhance your page loading speed through image optimization.

One of the easiest steps with a significant impact on page loading speed is often overlooked by developers—resizing your images to precisely match your website's requirements. However, I'm not referring to resizing images using CSS or in HTML.

For instance, if you have an image with dimensions of 8000x4500 pixels that you want to display on your website, but the required dimensions on your site are only 1000x560 pixels, it's crucial to scale down the original image to the required dimensions before integrating it into your website. Why? Because resized images are considerably smaller than the original ones and load much faster.

However, it's essential to consider a scenario where, after you've already incorporated perfectly-sized images into your website, you make layout changes that affect your image dimension requirements. Instead of generating new images each time your layout changes, you can find a close alternative, such as using a 1200x700px image if you need a 1000x560px image.

In the above example, I used an online image resizing tool which is 

to highlight the difference between the original image's size and the one I resized to the desired dimensions. The size difference between these two images has the potential to significantly speed up your website and reduce your bandwidth consumption.

The second, and also one of the easiest, steps to boost page loading speed is to compress your images. As you know, images can enhance the appearance of your web pages and elevate the quality of your content. However, large images can also significantly delay and slow down your loading times.

Therefore, the second easiest way to optimize your web pages and improve loading times is to compress every image used on your website. Image compression can be achieved through either lossy or lossless methods. Lossy compression reduces image quality to achieve smaller file sizes, while lossless compression maintains image quality without any loss of data. Files compressed using lossy methods are smaller but may exhibit reduced quality, whereas lossless compression results in larger files but maintains the original image quality. Therefore, I recommend using lossless compression, as it compresses your images without any additional quality degradation.

A convenient way to compress your images is by utilizing online compression tools. Personally, I often use 

. It employs smart lossy compression techniques to reduce the file size of your images by selectively decreasing the number of colors in your image. After compression, it's challenging to discern any difference from the original image, but it makes a significant difference in the file size. Therefore, I highly recommend 

In the example above, I compressed an image using TinyPNG, which utilizes smart lossy compression techniques. It reduced the size by 71%, resulting in a total size of 561 KB. Can you spot any differences between the original image and the compressed one?

The next step in speeding up your loading times involves selecting the appropriate format for every image on your website. This task can be a bit tricky, but it plays a crucial role in boosting your website's performance. JPEG, PNG, GIF, and SVG are the most common image formats used for websites. However, Google has introduced a new format called WebP, which works well with nearly all types of images and often provides better compression while maintaining the same quality.

WebP is a relatively new format that is supported by most modern browsers. However, due to its novelty, it may not work on some older browsers, and it is only partially supported on Safari. The best practice is to use the WebP format whenever possible and use other image formats like JPEG, PNG, GIF, and SVG as fallbacks. Here are some basic guidelines for each image format:

JPEG: Suitable for photographs, large background images, small banners, and images with complex color gradients.

PNG: Similar to JPEG (with better quality but larger file sizes), ideal for images requiring transparency, graphics with sharp edges, graphics, logos, icons, and images with text.

GIF: Suitable for simple animations (with optional transparency), web animations, and graphics with few colors (simple diagrams, shapes, logos).

SVG: Ideal for vector graphics, logos, icons, and signs.

WebP: Supports transparency, animations, and a wide range of color profiles.

In the example above, I converted the same image into three formats using an online image converter which is 

. You can see the comparison between PNG, JPEG, and WebP images. The images are visually similar but have different sizes. Choosing the right format for each image you use will help you strike the best balance between image size and quality, ultimately reducing loading times. Keep in mind that the same picture in different formats will have varying file sizes.

4. Implement Lazy Loading For Your Images

Another highly effective step you can take to optimize your web performance is by altering how your website loads images. This technique can be especially valuable for certain types of websites, such as e-commerce or restaurant websites, which typically display numerous images on a single page. Lazy loading is a web optimization technique that progressively loads images on a website as the user scrolls or as the images become visible in the browser's viewport. Lazy loading helps reduce page load times and conserves bandwidth by loading images only when they are needed.

Here are some methods for implementing lazy loading:

 In HTML5, you can add the 'loading' attribute to your image tags to enable lazy loading. For example:

 You can also implement lazy loading using JavaScript for more control. Here's an example:

The example above illustrates the implementation of lazy loading, one of the most useful techniques for reducing loading times and improving the overall performance of your website. You're not limited to using just HTML or JavaScript; you can find lazy loading implementations for various JavaScript frameworks like Vanilla JS, React, Vue, Angular, and more.

The four easy steps listed above will not only decrease loading times on your website but also significantly enhance the overall user experience. Faster loading times and images contribute to a faster website in general. These implementations are basic and straightforward ways to optimize your web performance for faster loading times. Additionally, while tools, converters, and code implementations have been provided for each step, don't limit yourself to these options; you can explore and research to find the best implementation for optimizing your web performance.

Version 0.2.6 Patch Notes

Web accessibility, or eAccessibility, is the inclusive practice of ensuring there are no barriers that prevent interaction with, or access to, websites on the World Wide Web by people with physical disabilities, situational disabilities, and socio-economic restrictions on bandwidth and speed. When sites are correctly designed, developed, and edited, more users have equal access to information and functionality.

In today's digitally connected world, the internet serves as a gateway to information, services, and opportunities. However, for millions of individuals with disabilities, accessing and navigating the web can be a daunting challenge. Web accessibility, the practice of designing websites and applications to be usable by all, regardless of disabilities or impairments, plays a crucial role in bridging the digital divide.


Imagine trying to browse the web without being able to see the screen or use a mouse, or struggling to comprehend complex language due to a learning disability. These barriers can lead to exclusion, limiting access to education, job opportunities, and participation in society. Web accessibility aims to break down these barriers, creating an inclusive online experience for all users.

: Visual disabilities includes blindness, low vision and color blindness.

: Hearing disabilities includes hearing impairments and deafness.

: Conditions and disorders involving the central and peripheral nervous systems such as epilepsy, Alzheimer disease, Parkinson's disease, etc.

: Cognitive disabilities includes attention, learning disabilities and logic.

: Motor disabilities includes limited fine motor control, muscle slowness, difficulty or inability to use hands.

Based on the above types of disabilities, we can go through different topics of web accessibility:

Choosing colors with poor contrast can make navigating and reading a real pain. Good design means having enough contrast between foreground and background colors, not just for text and images but also for links, icons, and buttons. This is essential for people with low contrast sensitivity, which becomes more common as we age. Better colors make websites and applications easier to use in different lighting conditions.

Videos aren't just about pictures; sound is important too. Without audio, it's hard to understand what the video is about, which can be frustrating for people who can't hear. Captions make videos accessible for the deaf and also come in handy when watching in loud environments or when you need to be quiet.

Allowing users to adjust text size, spacing, font, and colors is crucial for people with low vision and dyslexia. Properly coded websites and applications should offer customization options without losing functionality or clarity.

Using clear language, headings, lists, and separations is important for making content understandable and appealing to a wider audience, including non-native speakers. Avoiding complex language, jargon, and unexplained acronyms makes content more accessible for everyone.

Ensuring websites and apps are operable by the keyboard is vital for people who prefer or need to navigate without a mouse. Whether due to limited mobility, a physical disability, or a broken mouse, keyboard compatibility ensures usability for all users.

Voice recognition technology allows easier communication, especially for people with disabilities. It helps with web searches, sending emails, and controlling navigation apps. Properly coded websites and apps are crucial for voice recognition to work well. It can also assist people with temporary limitations, like an injured arm, and prevent injuries from getting worse, such as Repetitive Stress Injury (RSI).

Text-to-speech technology is beneficial for the blind, people with dyslexia, and those who have difficulty reading. It allows multitasking and better indexing of website content for search engines. Properly coded websites and apps enable text-to-speech functionality.

A good layout improves user experience, including clear headings, navigation bars, and consistent styling. Complex layouts make it difficult for people with visual disabilities to find information. Clear design benefits people with cognitive and learning disabilities who need simplicity and consistency. It also helps those who lack confidence around computers.

Clear notifications and feedback are essential for user orientation and avoiding confusion. Complex error messages should be made understandable. Predictable and understandable websites and apps are accessible to people with cognitive and learning disabilities and are more usable for everyone, especially those with lower computer skills.

Making clickable areas larger and easier to use benefits all users, particularly on mobile websites. It is critical for people with reduced dexterity, allowing them to navigate more easily.

Web Accessibility: Essential for Some, Useful for All

Prioritizing web accessibility benefits people with disabilities, but it also enhances usability for all users. Making websites and applications accessible is a win-win situation for everyone.


In this exploration of web accessibility, we will delve into the key principles, best practices, and technologies that enable individuals with disabilities to fully engage with digital content. We will discover how captioned videos, clear design, customizable features, and keyboard compatibility empower users with diverse needs to access information and interact seamlessly in the

Web Accessibility Part 1: Introduction

Creating NPM packages for internal usage can be a daunting task, leaving many individuals unsure of where to start. However, such packages can significantly benefit organizations with multiple projects that rely on common code across various endeavors.

These internal packages are particularly useful for sharing utilities, logic, or components that serve as core, fundamental, or atomic building blocks, reducing the need for frequent updates. It's essential to focus on creating packages for reusable code and steer clear of generating packages for specific product features.

While internal packages enhance code reusability, they come with the responsibility of proper maintenance and version control to ensure seamless operations.

In our own company, we recently encountered the necessity of having a modular package that could be utilized in both frontend and backend tech stacks. As a team responsible for multiple projects, we wanted to maintain consistency by utilizing the same logic. To address this, we decided to create a comprehensive package to handle core functionalities, striving for simplicity and full test coverage.

Throughout this article, we will address the following key points:

(Optional) Implementing Testing: Ensuring Package Integrity and Stability using Vitest

How to deploy to a private NPM repository?

How to npm install a private package within a CI/CD pipeline?

By exploring these points, we will delve into the challenges we faced and the solutions we adopted. We will also demonstrate the step-by-step process of streamlining NPM private package development using the powerful Vite framework. By the end of this article, you'll have the knowledge and tools to create robust and reusable packages tailored to your organization's specific needs.

Our setup is using Vite 4 and Node 16. This is our main barebone for the project’s structure.

When choosing a package name if you wanted to use major package repo registries such as GitHub and NPM, you need to comply with their naming scheme: @organization_name/project_name

This naming scheme using @ prefix is meant for a scoped package, meaning that it is scoped for an organization or certain bundle.

If you use the default NPM registry, you can drop the @organization_name prefix if your package is public.

The reason is to prevent the same project name from clashing with other users. But for public NPM packages, because it’s for open-source sake it is allowed to use without prefixes.

Whether you're using Vite, Webpack, or Turbopack it's no problem.
But we picked Vite for its ease of use and our familiarity with it.

Because one of our main purposes is to have fully tested code, we decided to add unit tests to our project. In this case, we used Vitest, it’s a package by Vite and compatible with Jest. We also used jest-extended for some extra assertion features.

We are faced with a challenge to usejest-extended for vitest. So we’re using this setupTests.js

The downside is we haven’t really found a way to integrate the typedef of jest-extended to the autocomplete.

So we’re using some hacky way to do it:

For releasing we don’t want to include our source maps, or unnecessary files to be uploaded to the repo. Therefore we utilize .npmignore to ignore what is to be uploaded.

Also, you need to prepare your package.json so it doesn’t include dependecies and devDependecies the rest is fine if you wanted to keep it though.

@metapals/package_name

license : optional licensing if you’re package open-source

types : main entry point of the library type definition

exports : additional stuff to be enabled for use outside the entry points

Please take note that import is for ESM and require is for CommonJS.

But the next question is, how do we remove the dependencies? Well, we create a script for release, that gonna be discussed in the next step.

So, we created publish.sh , which in this example we’re uploading to GitHub Private NPM Repo Packages.

Basically what we did is temporarily duplicate package.json and remove unnecessary keys before uploading, and restore it back once the upload is done.

It is recommended to use semver for automated package usability. Why? So you can use this syntax for installing to prevent using a higher breaking change version MAJOR or MINOR.

If you use ^1.0.0(^ caret symbol) meaning that it will match any version greater than or equal to 1.0.0 and less than 2.0.0 — constraint to the latest minor update.

If you use ~1.0.0 (~ tilde symbol) meaning that it will match any version greater than or equal to 1.0.0 and less than 1.1.0 — constraint to the latest patch update.

that we will not discuss in this article. However, if you’re curious you can search on semver constraint

We wanted to use it on another project, but we need to npm install it on other repo CI/CD pipelines. So in this case we’re using Github Actions. We also wanted to keep our .npmrc git ignored because, on the dev PC, we wanted to don’t have to think about the token very much in our daily dev stuff. Therefore we created .npmrc.example so it can be committed to the repo.

Because we already created a release script, we can just straight use that for the pipeline.

7b. Installing Private NPM Package on Other Repository

You can also replace ${{ secrets.GITHUB_TOKEN }} with any secrets if you have a package outside the organization / different package registry. Or if you’re comfortable with using the console environment you can replace it with the env name e.g. ${NPM_TOKEN}, so now it can also look like this

Btw, when creating this pipeline, we found out that on the GitHub Action pipeline, this way of writing files will not make \n into newline, so instead we use an example file and then use sed to replace its content.

In conclusion, we have successfully created an internal NPM package tailored to our company's specific needs, complete with seamless integration.

If you're interested in creating your own packages, we have provided a helpful template that you can leverage:

https://github.com/metapals/sample-npm-package

While the process may not be overly complicated, it does involve configuring various settings and following best practices, which can be challenging for those new to package development.

Although our focus was on creating a private package, it's worth mentioning that with a simple modification in the shell script, changing the parameter access to 'public', and adjusting your package registry settings, you can also publish your package as a public one.

In conclusion, the journey of developing an NPM package for internal usage has been rewarding, enabling us to streamline code reusability and enhance development efficiency. We hope that our experiences and the provided template will prove valuable in simplifying the process for you as well. Happy coding!

Introduced an error message popup for cases where pets failed to summon, aiding in error resolution.

Version 0.2.5 Patch Notes

The following bugs have been reported to the development team and we’re actively working on these to be resolved:

Occasionally, the extension may appear unresponsive. Switching back and forth between tabs will resolve this.

If your pet doesn't want to eat despite hunger being below 100%, try moving the pet and the food.

After switching accounts with different pets, if the summoned pet is incorrect, dismiss and re-summon the pet.

If a pet is missing on a specific tab and the summon bell doesn't work, simply refresh that tab.

Food may not synchronize properly after being removed, leading to inconsistencies between tabs.

MetaPals is still in the early development stages and our team is working hard to make it the best it can be. When you come across a new bug, don’t hesitate to
