Enable content-encoding (gzip/brotli) for JS files #62

Closed mattbrundage closed 5 years ago

mattbrundage commented 6 years ago

The DAP GA JavaScript files served from https://dap.digitalgov.gov/ are currently being served uncompressed. Turning on gzip or brotli would be a quick win.

:+1: Yes, this should be an easy win.

Note it's only 20K, but yeah, Google's pagespeed scanner suggests that gzip would reduce the size by 74%, down to ~5K.

Thanks for this!

DAP is now gzipping the minified file. Thanks for that. Looks like this fix is documented in commit 8e4e5965145dbbfd3c1fef4bf91cb0f16c9aec3a
