<p>Flying Pages preload pages before the user click on it, making them load instantly</p>
<h3>How it Works?</h3>
<p>Flying Pages injects a tiny JavaScript code (1KB gzipped), waits until the browser becomes idle. Then it detects pages in the viewport and on mouse hover and preloads them.</p>
<p>Flying Pages is intelligent to make sure preloading doesn’t crash your server or make it slow.</p>
<ul>
<li>
<p><strong>Preload pages in the viewport</strong> – Detect links within the viewport (current viewing area) using ‘Intersection Observer’ and tells the browser to preload them using ‘prefetch’, switch to xhr if not available (similar to <a href="https://github.com/GoogleChromeLabs/quicklink" rel="nofollow ugc">Quicklink</a>).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Preload pages on mouse hover</strong> – On hovering links, if it’s not preloaded yet using above ‘viewport’, then Flying Pages will prefetch them instantly (similar to <a href="https://instant.page/" rel="nofollow ugc">Instant.page</a>).</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Limits the number of preloads per second</strong> – If your page has too many links, prefetching all at the same time will cause the server to crash or slow down the website to visitors. Flying Pages limits the number of preloads per second (3 req/sec by default) using an in-built queue. For example, if you’ve 10 links in the viewport, preloading all these are span into 4 seconds.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Stops preloading if the server is busy</strong> – In case the server starts to respond slowly or return errors, preloading will be stopped to reduce the server load.</p>
</li>
<li>
<p><strong>Understands user’s connection and preferences</strong> – Checks if the user is on a slow connection like 2G or has enabled data-saver. Flying Pages won’t preload anything in this case.</p>
</li>
</ul>

Flying Pages: Preload Pages for Faster Navigation & Improved User Experience

Preload pages intelligently to boost site speed and enhance user experience by loading pages before users click, ensuring instant page transitions.

Albert Bertilsson

<p>A classical optimization on a web site is to configure cache headers of a page to enable the browser to display the page instantly if it has been loaded recently. This works very well when the user is hitting the back button to go back to the previous page.</p>
<p>What if we could do the same for the next page that the user will request? With this plugin this is now possible!</p>
<p>Fast Forward works by analyzing which pages are most frequently navigated to from the current page. The page with most traffic is then given as a preload hint to the users browser. For technical details please see: http://albertsnotes.blogspot.se/2012/06/browser-preloading.html.</p>
