About

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.

Tachyon is a deprecated script that improves the user experience of your website by prerendering pages before a user navigates to them.
