Let's Go Fast! Creating a Culture of Frontend Performance
summary
Lyft forms a volunteer front-end community that meets biweekly, rotates facilitator/note-taker/PM roles, and runs quarter-long cycles. Practical outputs include an internal Lighthouse runner that stores historical layout scores and triggers alerts, a bundle size reporter that comments on PRs (e.g. flags +30 KB), a Core Web Vitals plugin for CI, weekly performance reports, dashboards and written case studies. Projects often run multiple quarters on donated time and aim to make performance visible and actionable across teams.
