Introducing Zero-Bundle-Size React Server Components
Key Points
- Zero-bundle-size server components
- Talk, demo, and RFC available
- Experimental — community feedback wanted
Summary
React Server Components (RSC) are a research prototype that lets you render components on the server without adding to the client bundle size. The team published a talk, a runnable demo, and an RFC (with FAQ) to explain the design and collect feedback. These components are experimental — the project is intended for evaluation and discussion, not production adoption yet.
Key Points
- Zero-bundle-size: RSC aim to move UI logic to the server so clients don’t receive extra JavaScript for server-only components.
- Available resources: watch the talk for concepts and demo, clone the demo repo to run locally, and read the RFC for technical details and to submit feedback.
- Recommended order for newcomers: 1) watch the talk, 2) clone/play with the demo, 3) read and comment on the RFC (FAQ included).
- Contribution/feedback: respond on the RFC or via @reactjs on Twitter; authors welcome community input.
- Status: active research and development (not yet stable); useful for engineers to prototype ideas and provide feedback.
