Quick takeaways

  • React Server Components (RSC) combine server-side rendering and client-side interactivity, resulting in faster load times and improved user experience.
  • Migrating existing apps to use RSC should be approached cautiously, with prototyping and compatibility evaluation, due to the new coding pattern and potential limitations.

Deep dives

React Server Components improve website performance and interactivity

React Server Components (RSC) offer a new approach to web development, combining server-side rendering and client-side interactivity. RSC allows for the pre-rendering of components on the server, resulting in faster load times. It also enables developers to seamlessly switch between server-side and client-side rendering, optimizing both performance and interactivity. While RSC is still in its early stages, it has the potential to simplify development and improve user experience. Developers should consider experimenting with RSC in new projects and evaluating its benefits for their specific use cases.
