This audit identifies the time at which the user feels that the primary content of the page is visible.

The lower your First Meaningful Paint score, the faster that the page appears to display its primary content.
Optimizing the Critical Rendering Path is particularly helpful towards achieving a faster First Meaningful Paint.
