| ,,Inlines critical CSS,3,1,1,1,"<p>There's two ways to get CSS on your web page -- inline it with your html, or load it on a separate page referenced in your html. If you reference CSS in a separate page, your client's browser will block page loading until it receives the CSS file. This can delay interactivity by 500ms (on a fast connection), to 3+ seconds on a slow connection.</p> | ||

| ,,Declarative UI,3,0,1,0,"Gatsby is built on top of React, which allows a hierarchical UI construction by declaratively passing props down child trees.
