- Builder.io can be used in collaboration with other CMS platforms and APIs, allowing for flexibility and integration with existing systems. Qwik is becoming an open-source project, detached from Builder.io, to encourage community involvement and contributions.

- Qwik is well-positioned to address Core Web Vitals and improve Interaction to Next Paint (INP) scores.

- Qwik UI and other ecosystem projects enhance the Qwik framework and provide additional functionality.

- Qwik 2.x will introduce improvements such as out-of-order streaming and a better micro-front-end story.

- The concept of Qwik Server Components is being explored, but it may not align with the server-first approach of Qwik.
