Guide
Fix what the theme controls before chasing a perfect score.
Core Web Vitals are affected by theme code, media, apps, customer devices and network conditions. The useful approach is to isolate controllable bottlenecks and validate changes.
01
Largest Contentful Paint
Inspect hero media, product images, preload behavior, critical CSS and server-dependent app content.
02
Interaction responsiveness
Reduce main-thread JavaScript, duplicated listeners, large bundles and theme features that execute before the user needs them.
03
Layout stability
Reserve image dimensions, avoid late-injected banners and inspect app blocks that alter layout after render.
04
Validation
Compare lab results and field data over time. Do not market a single Lighthouse run as a guaranteed business outcome.

No. It provides a workflow and decision framework. Store-specific validation is still required.
