## Superpowers

### Image optimization

Draftbox optimizes images and renders ones that are appropriate for the current screen resolution (desktop, mobile, table, and everything in between), providing faster load time and reduced time-to-interactive.

### Caching

Draftbox with its intelligent caching mechanism and leveraging CDN functionalities from Netlify: stores, invalidates, and fetches resources (E.g. HTML, CSS, Images, and JavaScript) in the background without affecting user experience. Draftbox generates sites which are PWA compliant that provides potential performance improvements by leveraging the cache for almost instant page loads. 

### Prefetch pages

Draftbox prefetches resources of other pages when the current page has loaded. This mechanism provides smoother and faster navigation among internal pages. Due to prefetch, there is a considerable reduction in bounce rate and an increase in domain authority.

### SEO optimization

Built-in support for metadata, descriptive text for links and images, canonical URLs, XML sitemaps helps you rank your site better. Rich metatags for Facebook Open Graph, Twitter Cards, and JSON-LD provide a beautiful representation of your articles on every part of the web.

### Web Vitals

With Google adding Web Vitals as one of the factors in their holy search ranking algorithm. So what are core web vitals? These are real-world experience metrics that Google is looking at, that answer things like: How fast does the page load? How fast is it interactive? How fast is it stable? Draftbox sites are carefully crafted and regularly optimized to meet the standards set by Google and W3C. 

### AMP pages
