Introduction to UX Speed

In this short workshop, Sergey Chernyshev will discuss why the Speed of User Experience matters and how to determine if your site is fast or slow. He will talk about web performance metrics in general and introduce Core Web Vitals - a set of metrics most commonly used to measure UX Speed.
