A collection of technical deep dives, architectural patterns, and system design notes.
Understand the hidden cost of modern JavaScript frameworks: Hydration. Learn what it is, why it slows down your site, and how Partial Hydration (Islands Architecture) is solving it.
Dive into React Server Components (RSC), the paradigm shift that allows you to write components that run exclusively on the server, resulting in zero bundle size and direct database access.
Unlock the power of Streaming SSR to send HTML to the browser in chunks, reducing Time to First Byte (TTFB) and improving perceived performance.
Learn how Incremental Static Regeneration (ISR) combines the speed of static sites with the freshness of server-side rendering, allowing you to update content without a full rebuild.
Discover Static Site Generation (SSG), the gold standard for performance and security, where pages are pre-built at compile time and served instantly from a CDN.
Explore Server-Side Rendering (SSR), a technique where pages are rendered on the server for each request, offering superior SEO and initial load performance.
A deep dive into how React renders entirely in the browser, exploring the architecture, core trade-offs, and practical implementation in modern frameworks like Next.js.
