We no longer need to ship the…

Having spent time cache tuning some renderings I wanted to prove the cache contained the HTML markup I expected . Unfortunately Sitecore doesn’t let you view the contents of the HTML cache without writing some custom code. Sitecore…

As Sitecore developers we should try and be mindful, that performance should be a consideration from the start when building a component. Caching is an important part of ensuring we build performant controls, yet to some caching is a…
