Resource Hints: modulepreload

- LS

Using <link rel="modulepreload">, browsers can be informed to prefetch module scripts without having to execute them, allowing fine-grained control over when and how module resources are loaded.

Unlike some other link relations, changing the relevant attributes (such as as, crossorigin, and referrerpolicy) of such a link does not trigger a new fetch. This is because the document's module map has already been populated by a previous fetch, and so re-fetching would be pointless.
