## Description

After loading the page, the plugin starts to follow the user’s screen. And as soon
as a link appears on the screen within your site – the browser executes the request
and downloads it. Now that the user clicks on the link, the browser will instantly
display a new cache page. Thus, User Experience will indicate that your site is 
loading instantly.

### How it work

The plugin uses the built-in browser features to predict user behavior for preloading
the tourniquet. See [this](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Link_prefetching)
