Universal performance metrics like Largest Contentful Paint give us a lot of insight, but they don't capture the whole performance story. Depending on client and use case, it can be useful to define **custom metrics** to capture the performance of what's most important for your specific users on your specific site.

In her talk, **Terry O'Shea** will provide examples of these specific metrics, and she'll go through ways we can implement these metrics—tools like the **User Timing API**, the **Element Timing API**, and **Server-Timing** headers.

We will have **food and drinks** and as always, we are going to have **geekaways** with **geeky prizes** provided by our sponsors.

**Agenda:**
6:00 - Arrive at the venue, meet other members
6:20 - Event starts
6:45 - **Custom Performance Metrics** (Terry O'Shea)
7:45 - Q&A
8:00 - "Books and Stuff" geekaways
