Build faster websites
without the bloat

Modern marketing websites have become increasingly JavaScript-heavy. The average web page now ships over 500KB of JavaScript, and component libraries built on React add significant overhead. Every component on the page needs to hydrate — including static text content that never changes.

This is particularly problematic for long-form content. Blog posts, landing pages, and documentation sites are content-first by nature, yet frameworks like Next.js require the full Virtual DOM runtime to reconcile every text node, heading, and paragraph. The more content on the page, the higher the cost.

Consider a marketing page with a navigation menu, pricing tables, testimonials, and a contact form. In a traditional React setup, the browser must download, parse, and execute JavaScript for Base UI primitives, state management, event delegation, and the component tree itself — even for sections that are purely presentational.

The alternative is to use a server-first approach where components render to plain HTML by default. Interactive elements like navigation menus and tooltips use lightweight data-slot primitives that add only the JavaScript strictly necessary for behavior — no framework, no virtual DOM, no hydration.
