Head JS Speeds Up, Simplifies & Modernizes Your Site

The HEAD section is the worst place to load scripts. It’s painfully slow. The more and the bigger the worse it gets. Move scrips to the bottom and you run into dependency issues and you cannot safely use HTML5 and CSS3. Enter Head JS. A compact solution to these universal issues. The alternative solution is load scripts in parallel but execute in order.

Head JS is 2.3 kb script that speeds up, simplifies and modernizes your site. Head JS loads scripts in parallel without blocking the page. The performance will be improved even with a single minified script. A typical problem in templating systems or in pages with separate header/footer files. HeadJS adds classes to the HTML root element. The focus is on CSS3 styling and it’s easy to add more tests. Minimalism is a must. It’s your HEAD again.
