Achieving a 100/100 Google Lighthouse Score in Next.js 15
# Achieving a 100/100 Google Lighthouse Score Search engines heavily penalize slow websites with poor Core Web Vitals scores. ## Optimization Checklist: 1. **Fonts**: Use `next/font/google` with `display: swap` to eliminate layout shifts. 2. **Images**: Use `next/image` with `priority` on LCP heroes and `loading="lazy"` on sub-fold imagery. 3. **CSS Utility Optimization**: Hardware-accelerate CSS keyframe animations using `transform-gpu`.
