Measurement ideas
Track completion rate from URL paste to successful download (or honest failure). Segment by device class to see whether url normalization notes changes outcomes on phones vs desktops.
If you publish changelogs, reference guide #870 when you ship related fixes so internal search stays coherent.
Keyboard and screen-reader basics for form UX
A labeled URL field, visible focus rings, and a single primary button help keyboard-only visitors complete the flow. Skip mysterious icon-only controls without `aria-label` text.
Semantic headings let assistive tech users jump between sections the same way sighted users scan H2s.
gzip and Brotli for text assets
Modern hosts compress HTML/CSS/JS automatically. Verify with `curl -H 'Accept-Encoding: br' -I` so you are not accidentally serving uncompressed bundles.
Precompressed uploads matter most when you self-host without a CDN layer.
