Server-first components moved data access and rendering, but K81R still had to design navigation, loading, accessibility, errors, readiness, and browser cost.
#frontend
React’s 2013 release made one-way rendering tangible, but T04P improved only after its transport, continuity, and freshness states were made explicit outside the view library.
A slow phone and an expensive connection turned page weight from a technical afterthought into a product constraint.
T04P behaved well for ten minutes and badly by the sixth hour, exposing timer drift, leaked listeners, unbounded history, and assumptions about browser attention.
A polished desktop composition taught me almost nothing about how the catalogue should behave when content, width, input, and loading conditions changed.
