  > The Fastest Way to Increase Your Site's Performance Throw out React? Just kidding, we're not here for real solutions!

    It's funny because it's (partially/mostly) true.

    Usually when I'm working on a site's performance I do actually suggest a smaller framework. Most people think they need React because it's popular/cool when really it's super overkill and they'd be better off with a lighter MVVM framework that still gives them components. That's why I'm a big fan of Mithril, Inferno, and Preact. They're so much smaller than Angular and React.

  Offtopic, but I really like how the blog works. It feels really fast. I checked it out in dev tools to see how long it took and noticed that a lot of the assets came from "service worker", which I haven't seen before. What exactly does that mean?

    Likely the service worker is caching the assets onto your machine. So if it comes from the service worker, you've visited the site (or the asset) before: https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/codelabs/debugging-service-workers/#add_caching_to_your_service_worker https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/codelabs/debu...
