Appreciate the feedback, we can likely tweak the colors a little!

Hey HN! I wanted to share an experiment I ran that tests the performance of RSC vs traditional client-side React on one of our product websites (productonboarding.com). I know RSC is a bit of a controversial topic since server-side rendering used to be an ancient paradigm with the shift to modern JS frameworks. As such, I went into the experiment with a healthy dose of skepticism.

To test this out, I conducted an experiment where I built an RSC version and a traditional client-side React version of the same website and measured performance. We were able to improve our bundle size and speed by 62% and 63%, respectively. You can find the whole writeup here. https://frigade.com/blog/bundle-size-reduction-with-rsc-and-...

I actually enjoyed building with RSC more than I expected to, and it made for a better user experience since it rendered almost 3x faster than the client version.

Would love to hear any feedback and thoughts on our experiment. Have you started to use React Server Components yet, or no? Have you seen similar results?

We support i18n through dynamic variables. In short, you can define your flow in Frigade and instead of hardcoding strings in one language, you can simply pass in a variables from your codebase.

Do you use any i18n platform? We're thinking of perhaps creating some integrations.

We were surprised too. We started looking for a solution at our last startup and never found anything.

Coming soon :) -- we started with React and Vue is the next web frontend framework on our list.

It's a fun language to play around with and everything. Just have never seen anyone us it at scale in the industry other than folks doing research/academia.
