Abstract | The rapid expansion of the internet has led to increased energy consumption and carbon emissions, necessitating the integration of sustainable practices in web development. Front-end optimization techniques, such as image compression and efficient JavaScript execution, have emerged as key strategies in reducing energy use and environmental impact. This article examines how sustainable design methodologies and specific front-end optimizations, including automatic image optimization, lazy loading, dead code elimination, and optimized JavaScript evaluation orders, contribute to greener digital practices. Real-world applications demonstrate substantial reductions in data transmission, improved website efficiency, and lower carbon footprints. Additionally, the article discusses server-side optimizations and explores the business advantages of sustainable web development, emphasizing cost efficiency, enhanced corporate reputation, innovation potential, and regulatory compliance. With the ongoing impacts of the pandemic, climate change, and a global shift toward remote work, increased caution around sustainability in web practices is more crucial than ever. |
