What Hacker News says
5 sourcesOut of so many new drag and drop frameworks coming out it is still impressive to see how they are approaching here. Both Mitosis and qwik are nice repos to watch for. Putting links here for easy navigation

In How Qwik addresses JavaScript reactivity challengesFor better or worse I care deeply about my lighthouse scores, and I've been tempted by the "evil tips" in the article. I try my best to control my results by using both Pagespeed Insights[1] and WebpageTest[2].
That being said my worst scores are always the result of a reliance on third party tools like Zendesk - which is why I'm so excited about efforts to load third party scripts outside the main thread like partytown[3]
