Join Addy Osmani, your curator, as we dive into a nuanced look at several key topics that will teach you tips and tricks that may help you optimize your own sites. The case studies fall into four major categories that impact almost every project — Performance, Capabilities, Accessibility, and Developer Experience — and the book also includes short interviews with contributors on what additional lessons, challenges, and tips they have to share some time after the case studies were written.
Rather than focusing on conventional project management steps and procedures, Success at Scale is about the ideas and processes that worked (and a few that didn’t), capturing challenges, frustrations, and wins through the eyes of the people who make change happen.

Success at Scale is for professional web developers and teams who want to deliver high-quality web experiences and are looking for real-world examples and insights. Every project is different, but in this book, you will recognize common challenges and frustrations faced by many teams — maybe even your own — and see how other developers conquered them. Success at Scale goes beyond beginner material to cover pragmatic approaches required to tackle these projects in the real world.
