Tabi theme does not achieve a 100 Lighthouse score

[oxidebits]

System information

Hi! 👋

I’ve noticed that the Tabi theme no longer reaches a 100 Lighthouse score. Since Zola has introduced several under‑the‑hood changes, the theme’s performance and optimizations seem to have fallen behind.

Request

Please consider updating and refactoring the theme for compatibility with Zola 0.22.*.
Some areas that may need attention:

• Performance regressions noticed after upgrading to Zola 0.22
• Image handling: current PNG/JPEG outputs may reduce Lighthouse scores
• Syntax highlighting: Investigate tree-sitter to replace syntect getzola/zola#1787 (comment)
• Recommendation: adopt aggressive modern image formats such as JPEG‑XL, AVIF, and WebP for better compression and performance
• General cleanup/refactor to align with Zola’s changes

Reason

Zola has changed significantly under the hood, and these updates appear to impact the theme’s performance scores. A refresh could restore/improve Lighthouse results.

Thanks for your work on this project! 🙌

Expected behaviour

Actual behaviour

Final checklist

• I've checked that the issue isn't already reported.
• I've tested with the latest version of tabi to check if the issue has already been fixed.
