sitespeed.io: The Browser That Keeps the Whole Timeline

web-performance-testing.com ↗ · Developer Corner · score 86.0
Open: public page gives enough substance to understand the site $Paid: pricing, booking, ecommerce, subscription, or paid access is visible ADAds: visible ad load or ad-supported content Pretty: notable design, copy, craft, or presentation Pro: polished, finished-feeling, serious, or operationally mature Niche: specific audience, workflow, or unusually focused use case Human: personal, local, community, civic, handmade, or real-person signal !Suspicious: scammy, spammy, trust theater, finance fog, or credibility concern

An open-source web-performance tool that drives real browsers, records detailed loading behavior, and produces HTML reports, waterfalls, videos, and Core Web Vitals.

Why it surfaced

sitespeed.io treats a page load as a sequence rather than a single score: it recommends multiple runs, reading the median, and inspecting where DNS, connection, rendering, and third-party requests introduce noise. It runs through npm or Docker, supports Firefox, Chrome, Edge, and Safari, and can send metrics to Graphite or InfluxDB for Grafana dashboards and CI budgets.

August 15’s newborn domains include a live-aboard hydrogen airship with a two-tonne lift problem, a Japanese toolbox that explains its assumptions, an advisory-by-advisory Hawaiʻi hurricane archive, and a wedding-gift game about ungrateful poultry.

This is one of 1,000 discoveries in the 2026-08-15 Domain Arrivals issue.
