‘How to Remove Render-Blocking JavaScript From Your Website’ – HubSpot
HubSpot team says, “Have you ever finished creating a website and loved everything about it?

And since most other culprits are already discussed extensively today we will be focusing on how to remove render-blocking JavaScript from your website“.
