Globemallow Extension

Globemallow was created to help designers and developers build websites using more sustainable development practices.

Everybody can make a change that affects energy consumption of the internet. Follow internet design best practices, and try to push for your organization to standardize on them.

Help Fight Climate Change:
* Become more aware of your internet browsing
* Discover how pages you browse can be optimized from a sustainable development stand point.

What our reports show:
* Try to only use external font libraries when absolutely necessary
* Ensure images are being lazy-loaded on your site
* Try reducing image byte size when possible, or reduce the amount of images altogether
* Amount of cookies implemented on a page
* The list goes on....

Sustainability Grade:
* Globemallow uses the US Academic Grading System.
** A+ for a good sustainability website, F for websites that could use a little work

Built on Open Source:
Energy consumption estimations are supplied by The Shift Project: https://github.com/carbonalyser/Carbonalyser

Privacy Policy:

* None of your data is collected: browsing data is analyzed directly on the user's device and is not sent or processed anywhere else, or in any way.

* We use Chrome APIs to view network statistics to calculate your score.

Gerrit Schuster (ID: 000000c7c0b76032) Voted 5 ★ - Updated 02/09/2022 As a sustainable webdesigner this is the extension I choose. Great algorithm for calculating the grade: Not just page-weight like the other extensions but also Javascript usage and many more. Just awesome!
