If there's one thing a web or "full stack" engineer needs to know in 2025, it's that client-side CPU is an intermittent, highly contingent resource. Most users don't have much, and you can't count on even that.

So quit it with the SPA/JS-heavy React nonsense already.

React gave us some good things in these past 10 years but also gave us a new generation of now Senior Engineers that think HTML is a bad practice.

Preact is truly amazing.

Same React app. One is bundled as is.

Another uses preact/compat to alias React imports and swaps in Preact under the hood.

Bundle size (gzip):
React: ~140KB
Preact: ~8KB

All of this by just changing a few lines and installing a couple of packages.

Nice benchmarking article about Preact signals that @jviide.iki.fi found.

"Even without using the Signals primitive, Preact is impressively performant."

I think I found @astro.build unsung hero: the Named Slot.
It makes complex layouts so much easier to manage
