Ever clicked a button and waited... and waited? Interaction to Next Paint just made that your SEO nightmare. Google's new metric calls out sluggish sites that FID ignored.

- INP measures every interaction's full lifecycle, not just the first click like FID.
- Common fails: heavy re-renders, sync layouts, third-party scripts—fix with task chunking and async loads.
- Expect a framework shakeup: bloat dies, lightweight wins big.
