It’s also just not actually true though. It’s not considered good practice to bundle your web components when publishing to npm for this exact reason. That’s something that should happen inside the final app itself where the components get used so you only have one instance of Lit for example if you are using that.
It would be cool if you could apply even the most basic reading comprehension here where it says there was zero change in team size and stop spreading nonsense.
That’s not actually correct I don’t know where you got that from. This is from this year and was built on top of a wider rewrite of their JS interop using new language features to make it essentially a zero cost abstraction.
Dart has had browser support and DOM APIs before but never had the same APIs you have in the web platform before.
I don’t know if you actually read the article or not but just to be clear that was not the argument that was made.
It’s not just “not new” it’s considered to be actively worse than all of its peers in terms of things like performance and complexity, it’s actively a very questionable choice in a greenfield project in 2023.
Flutter overtook RN a while back in terms of popularity in a few different metrics if I recall correctly. I forget the specifics but something from GitHub and StackOverflow I think.
Regardless of the specifics I don’t think the narrative is true, Flutter has had substantial continued growth for years now.
This is why you are comparing it against every other site in the same situation. At the end of the day based on the data it’s entirely fair to say Next is not a framework known for producing anything other than substantially below average outcomes when it comes to performance.
Strong disagree on this one. We are talking about the difference between theoretical performance (what you COULD do) vs performance in reality (this is a dataset that measures all the various nextjs websites across the web and then compares them along well established benchmarks against the rest of the internet across time).
One of those two things is infinitely more valuable than the other.
You made an argument saying that even Google won’t use it for cross platform.
I have some context as to why it’s both a wrong and misleading statement.
When it came to the biggest money maker of the entire business this is what they picked. When it came to a new greenfield project for an entire OS… this is what they picked for the UI.
The statements you made about “the lessons they learned” is just some stuff you made up and isn’t actually supported by facts.
