About

Flying Pages is a WordPress performance plugin that preloads pages in the browser before navigation to deliver near-instant page transitions.

It injects a lightweight script of about 1 KB, detects links in the viewport and on mouse hover to start prefetching, limits requests using an internal queue, pauses preloading when the server is under load, and skips it entirely for slow connections or data-saver modes to avoid unnecessary resource usage.

Quicklink is an open-source JavaScript library from the Google Chrome team that speeds up subsequent page loads by prefetching links likely to be visited next.

It automatically detects links visible in the viewport, waits until the browser is idle, skips slow or data-saver connections, supports both prefetching and prerendering, and provides controls for request priority, throttling, allowed origins, and ignored URLs.
