I work with e-commerce and this article is lovely! Thanks!

We struggle a lot with server performance due to the backend being a monolithic oracle Java app from over a decade ago, but I've been revamping the front-end and mid-layer. One of the targets was performance and responsiveness. Our competitors used to be far ahead on load times, then sightly ahead after the front-end revamp... But recently they've all moved to react/angular for their front-ends and I saw we are now outperforming them in load time as they've all degraded by moving to client side rendering. 🤷‍♀️ I'm sure their DX is much better, but I doubt their customers, or CEO would care 🙍
