I am using SquishIt MVC framework for bundling and minification of the js and css components present in the application. The code is as mentioned below:
public static class HTMLHelperExtensions
{
public static MvcHtmlString PackageLibs(this HtmlHelper htmlHelper)
{
var client = Bundle.JavaScript()
.Add("~/scripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js")
.Add("~/scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.17.min.js")
.Render("~/scripts/combined.js");
return new MvcHtmlString(client);
}
}
I am invoking the method : HTMLHelperExtensions from the layout page.
<%= HTMLHelperExtensions() %>
I want to use the defer attribute to boost the JavaScript performance of a web page.
Can anyone help me to know the usage of the defer attribute? I would like to know also is the usage of webworker useful here.
Thanks & Regards, Santosh Kumar Patro
To render with deferred load, change your bundle setup like so:
var client = Bundle.JavaScript()
.Add("~/scripts/jquery-1.7.1.min.js")
.Add("~/scripts/jquery-ui-1.8.17.min.js")
.WithDeferredLoad()
.Render("~/scripts/combined.js");
Web workers seem like overkill for something as trivial as script loading IMO.
