Product Information
What is Google lighthouse?
Lighthouse is an open-source automated tool designed to enhance web page quality. You can run it on any web page, whether public or requiring authentication. It conducts audits on performance, accessibility, progressive web apps, search engine optimization, and more.
You can execute Lighthouse via the command line in Chrome DevTools or as a Node module. By providing Lighthouse with a URL to audit, it performs a series of checks on the page and then generates a report detailing the page's performance. From there, use the failed audits as indicators for how to improve the page. Each audit comes with reference documentation explaining why the audit matters and how to address it.
Additionally, you can use Lighthouse CI to prevent regressions on your website.
