Things I wish I knew before moving 50K lines of code to React Server Components

Yeah Figma is in WASM and it's great that it is. I don't see it coming for React apps, really. Or if it is, that the JS tooling itself will automatically convert it to WASM.

I personally use Flutter for a lot of my apps, as well as React/NextJS for SEO based apps, the combo works pretty well.

Yeah, Figma's tech is incredible! Especially when I use side by side with Microsoft Teams, lol. One's a complex layered drawing app with plug-ins and imports and the other is a glorified chat app... guess which one is 10x slower and crashes every half an hour?

Whelps. Time to learn C++ again!

Might I suggest...Rust? It really is a great language and it has excellent WASM support due to not being GCed, just like C++.

Good idea. Sounds fun, actually!
