Quicklink library attempts to make navigations to subsequent pages load faster. This module loads the library and provides a Backdrop administrative interface to configure it.
Quicklink:
- Detects links within the viewport.
- Waits until the browser is idle.
- Checks if the user isn't on a slow connection or has data-saver enabled.
- Prefetches URLs to the links (using
<link rel=prefetch>or XHR). Provides some control over the request priority (can switch to fetch() if supported).
- Download the Backdrop module and extract it to your modules folder.
By default this module will load the Quicklink JavaScript library from a local
copy from a CDN https://unpkg.com/quicklink@2.3.0/dist/quicklink.umd.js.
The Quicklink module admin interface is located at
admin/config/development/performance/quicklink, and can be accessed from a tab on the development
/ performance settings page.
Chromium-based browsers, Firefox, and Safari.
You can tell Quicklink to ignore certain links by adding them into the ignore
list at admin/config/development/performance/quicklink.
In addition, you can add a noprefetch attribute onto the <a> tag to tell
the library not to prefetch this link.
