the naming is backwards then. An island is static, an ocean is not. See how it is a buzzword up to your interpretation?

- aatd86 9mo agonow that you say it :o Should be astro lakes or something.
- mpeg 9mo agoIslands is just a catchy name I guess. I always thought the markojs terms for it made sense, but are more technical / less catchy: they called it “full page hydration” -> everything needs to be delivered as js and “component level hydration” -> islands, only specific component sub-trees need to be hydrated. Then “sub-component level hydration” would be resumability like in qwik where only events and their dependencies get serialised as client js.
- aatd86 9mo agoYeah. Well to their defense, it is probably to be understood as islands of interactivity lost in a sea of static elements. The term is definitely more evocative.
