Default Re: X-Cart reBOOT (reDUX) Template

Is reDUX optimized for Core Web Vitals and do you have any tips for us? Google is set to turn this on in May.
@ Paul, I'm looking at ways to improve the CWV's, but a lot depends on your server spec/configuration. I've had a few people asking me about this, only to find that they're on cheap shared hosting, or they have poorly optimised images etc.

There's some good tips here BTW...

The positioning of javascript files can't be fixed, it's an age old limitation with X-Cart Classic.

CLS can probably be improved by not using carousels.

reDUX should already score highly for SEO in Lighthouse. Structured data is already taken care of.

Is this zip 4.7.12.5, or should the REBOOT_VERSION file be 4.7.12.4?
@ Peggy, that's a typo, it's still at v4.7.12.4, I've updated the zip file, sorry for any confusion.

Next major update will happen when v4.7.13 gets released, fingers crossed.
