> 150,000 records — far past where JavaScript (and React) would crash with a stack overflow error

I think react-virtualized and stack tables can easily handle 1 million rows client-side without a problem (I saw the demo somewhere).

Web development is about convenience, and the speed of development is far more important than ultra optimizations. People simply don't care about super optimizations because servers are so fast these days, and bandwidth is cheap, almost free.

But it's an interesting project. Good luck.

Could be, but some optimizations in Nue really stand out. Check out bundle size, HMR speed, build speed, and especially repository size. An empty Next.js project weighs over 300MB, a Vite button is around 150MB, while a Nue SPA clocks in at just 2MB.

This exact demo will crash with vanilla JavaScript (in Chrome 134.0). This React would also crash — unless the computation relies on WASM

Sigh.
