Overview

Splitting only helps if the split-off code was genuinely not needed for the first screen. Analyse the bundle before you cut it.

In this lesson you will:

  • Read a bundle analysis and find the heavy dependency
  • Split along route and interaction boundaries
  • Avoid splitting code that is needed immediately anyway

Pro Tip

Use caching and revalidation wisely to ensure your app stays fast and data remains fresh without unnecessary requests.
