103 Early Hints

Explanation:

The 103 Early Hints status code is used to return some response headers before final HTTP message. It allows a server to send the response headers ahead of the final response. This helps to start loading resources while the server is still preparing a response.

Usage:

Useful for performance optimisations, the server can hint to the client which resources can be preloaded or fetched early.

Attentions:

  • This status code mostly concerns frontend performance optimisation and should be used when significant load times are expected.
  • Clients should be prepared to handle a subsequent final response after the early hints.
