Improve load time/reduce requests #5

Closed x3ro closed 8 years ago

x3ro commented 9 years ago

Current load time is kind of horrible with around 1.25s. Maybe that can be improved upon.

[x] Don't use polyfill.io?
[x] Merge and minify JavaScript
[ ] jQuery accounts for 50% of the sites payload. Do we really need it? Is there a lightweight alternative (we basically "only" need AJAX stuff I guess)
[ ] When loading with JavaScript, truncate the GitHub API response to the data we need before passing on. Currently everything is being piped, plus the rendered content.

jQuery alternative doesn't seem a worthwhile investment right now, especially with gzip.
