Server side rendering React natively with Reason
summary
Claim is that React can be server rendered natively by compiling Reason components so one codebase runs on browser and server, implemented as serverReasonReact with renderToString renderToStream and renderToMarkup APIs compiled to JS and native. Benchmarks show large speed gains versus Node/Bun; production use covers parts of adrs (dashboard and workon) in a codebase with 5000 components, 20 front devs and 10 SPAs. Workable but beta, avoids component duplication and enables multicore and effect-driven patterns.
