On March 12 Google began promoting INP (Interaction to Next Paint) into a Core Web Vital metric in an effort to push performance beyond page loads. This means your website or application’s SEO ranking may be impacted if users do not have smooth interactions on the site or app. While this change is a net positive for users, finding the root cause of these reported slow interactions can be tricky for developers.

“A picture is worth a thousand words”. So if a picture takes more than 4 seconds to load, does it mean that your website’s content fails to communicate a thousand words? In this blog post, we’ll learn how to identify unoptimized images, how to fix them, and how to validate the fix — so your website can speak volumes with highly-optimized images.

Over the past year, we released a couple of new offerings, like Session Replay and Cron Monitoring. But in addition to building new products, we’re constantly looking for ways to improve our core platform to help you debug software issues faster. As you hopefully saw during Sentry’s Launch Week, we shipped five quality-of-life improvements addressing the following problems: Here’s the latest.

While there are several solutions that try to help you improve your testing practices and tooling, we believe that high-quality software is not just limited to how well it’s tested. That’s why we’re expanding beyond code coverage and building the foundation for the first of its kind pre-release platform with Bundle Analysis, Test Analytics, and AI-Powered Code Review.

We’ve been exploring new approaches to make Sentry issues more actionable. Read on to learn how we’re using machine learning to improve issue creation (i.e. grouping) and alerts, with as little configuration as possible, so you can focus on fixing the most important issues.

Sentry knows a lot about the inner workings of an application’s codebase. So we got to thinking, how can we use this rich dataset to make debugging with Sentry even faster? Many generative AI (GenAI) tools (e.g. GitHub Copilot) improve developer productivity in their dev environment, though few have the contextual data Sentry has to help fix errors in production.

Today, we’re making it even easier to find and solve user-impacting issues with three new Sentry Performance features.
