Summary

Netlify has integrated the Lighthouse plugin into its platform, allowing users to automatically generate full Lighthouse reports with scores for each site deploy, enabling them to compare their performance over time. The reports include scores for Performance, Accessibility, SEO, Best Practices, and Progressive Web Apps, as well as web vitals such as First Contentful Paint (FCP) and Cumulative Layout Shift (CLS). With this integration, Netlify users can easily track changes in their site's performance and make data-driven decisions to improve it. The plugin also allows for customizable testing options, including the ability to fail builds if any Lighthouse score falls below a set threshold. Additionally, on Pro plans and above, Netlify will display high-level Lighthouse scores directly on the deploy list, making it easier to spot major changes in performance over time.
