Website optimization tool for developers wanting to improve the quality of web pages
About Lighthouse
You can run it against any web page, be it public or require authentication. It has audits of performance, accessibility, progressive web apps, SEO and more. You can run Lighthouse in Chrome Devtools, from the command line, or as a Node. You simply give Lighthouse a URL to audit, it will run a series of audits against the page, and then generate a report on how good the page was. From there, use the audits that have failed as pointers on how to improvise the page. Each audit has a reference doc explaining why the audit is important, as well as how to fix it. Lighthouse Viewer requires the JSON output of a Lighthouse report. The following list explains how to get the output in JSON format depending on which Lighthouse stream you are using.
