**The Talk**
The Core Web Vitals - Largest Contentful Paint, Interaction to Next Paint, and Cumulative Layout Shift - were chosen because they are a close proxy for how good or bad a user experience is, however there are nuances to be aware of when measuring and acting on them.

In this talk we'll understand what the Core Web Vitals are, learn how to measure them in the browser, and analyze them for insights. We'll also look at some Core Web Vitals data collected by our RUM tool - mPulse.

**Speaker**
Philip Tellis works at Akamai as a RUM distiller. He wrote the opensource boomerang JavaScript library to collect web performance RUM data, and now spends his time analyzing this data. Philip is also on the W3C's Web Performance Working Group working to build standards and specifications to help improve web performance.

**Location**

* The meetup will be held on the 18th floor of Akamai's headquarters at Kendall Square in Cambridge, MA. It's a short walk from the MIT/Kendall Red Line T stop, or via the EZRide from North Station.
* There is no parking on site, and limited street parking, so consider using public transport or biking.
* You will need a Photo ID to attend this meetup, and the name on your ID should match the name you use to register on meetup.com.

**RSVPs**
Please RSVP by October 22nd so that we can get a list to the security desk. For any questions regarding the requirements, please contact the organizers.
