Exploring the current web development landscape: component architectures, performance optimization, edge computing, and the modern static site stack for optimal user experience.
The web development landscape continues to evolve rapidly. Here are my thoughts on the current state and future directions.
The Component Revolution
Component-based architectures have become the standard:
- React continues to dominate with its ecosystem
- Vue 3 offers excellent developer experience
