I might try out the Fresh framework from deno to see if the hype is true hype.

Reading about the Fresh framework lead me to an article about islands architecture and progressive hydration. “Island based client hydration” looks like a type of progressive enhancement.

Wonder how an adjustment to that theory pans out? Might be enough of a golden hammer for most use cases but imo, scaling/speed issues are more fundamental/situational. You could swap between or hybridize client/server all you want and still mess up.

Hugo has template performance metrics with the --templateMetrics flag. Here’s a snippet of the metrics for this site.

A nice thing about following lots of diverse technical feeds is that you’ll always kinda know what’s next. The “next” darling in the realm of front end web development seems to be Next.js? Meanwhile, I’m still messing around with WordPress installs.

Parsing RSS feeds is always a pain. Don’t parse feeds inside the template engine kids :-)
