How to reduce JavaScript on Webflow?

Hi there!
Unfortunately I’m a complete noob concerning programming.

After various PageSpeed tests I know that I have to reduce unused Java Script. But I don’t know how? There’s a button on Webflow that doesn’t say “Minify JS”, it’s ON. But how do I further reduce unused JavaScript?

If this question is just impossible to answer is a simple Blog post, please tell me honestly :smiley: But maybe there is a custom code snippet that at least helps to get Java Script loaded “later” and thus improves page speed.

The desktop version of my website gets about 93-98 points on PageSpeed Insights. But following the mobile first principle, I don’t really care too much about the desktop version, I need good results for the mobile version as well. And that is very bad with about 50 - max. 65 points on PageSpeed Insights.

Hi! Thank you for your reply!
Unfortunately this did not work since I simply didn’t find a possibility to change the HTML code of the template.
BUT there was a HTML embed for the comment section and disqus was the reason why everything was so extremely slow after all. So I could change the HTML embed of the comment section to “load JavaScript on interaction”.

Luckily, the PageSpeed Test for the mobile version changed from 52 points to 81 after that.

Trying to get rid of extra java on my new site. I have no idea how to get rid of it and it continues to give my site a bad score on load speed tests.
