This page catalogs the specific features included in Velocity Stack deployments.

Performance Optimization

Server-Side Caching: Full-page caching with cache tags for selective invalidation. Object caching for database query results. Browser caching headers for static assets. Compression enabled.

CDN Layer: Global edge caching integrated with Server-Side Caching. Automatic cache purge on content updates. Image optimization at the edge.

Primary Typeface Optimization: Self-hosted font files eliminate third-party requests. Preload hints for critical font weights. Subset to required character ranges.

Asset Optimization: CSS inlined for above-the-fold content. JavaScript deferred or async loaded. Images lazy-loaded with native browser support.

Responsive Design Framework: Mobile-first approach using t-shirt sizing breakpoints (XS-XL) ensures consistent behavior across all device sizes.
