Qwik: A holly grail of progressive hydration for ultimate speed
summary
Claims a resumable framework that makes pages interactive with a 1 KB bootstrap that executes in ~1 ms on desktop (≈10 ms on phone), pushes actual behavior lazy-loaded on interaction via dollar-sign boundaries, and serializes closures and state so the client can resume where the server left off. Demoed: single-page app with counters, clock, Hacker News and to‑dos showing 1.9s vs 8.1s time‑to‑interactive, and a companion Partytown moves third‑party scripts to a web worker to keep the main thread idle.
