You can obviously inline the CSS like we did for CSS Drop-caps. Then the javascript can be injected with more optimized way :
1 2 3 4 | <script src="//thecustomizewindows.com/wp-content/themes/my-theme/custom-js/js/wow.min.js" async defer>execOnReady(function(){execOnReady(function(){});});</script> <script> new WOW().init(); </script> |
