HTML <link> elements instructs web browsers to fetch important resources early before they are requested during page rendering.
It is commonly used to prioritize fonts, stylesheets, scripts, images, and other critical assets, helping reduce render delays and improve page loading performance.
The Speculation Rules API is a browser API that improves navigation performance by prefetching or prerendering pages that users are likely to visit next.
It uses
