Strike

Did you know that "hello".strike() is a valid JavaScript expression? This project will blow your mind with this and other useless usefull facts.

Why

We do what we must because we can.

-- GLaDOS

This is a proof of concept that it's actually possible to generate React Server Components with backends other than Node.js. In this case, Go.

By using Go and simplified implementation of RSC, hopefully we give you a nice playground that will help you understand the principles behind RSC better.

The name strike doesn't have any special meaning, but it had two things going for it:

  • name wasn't taken
  • both html tag <strike> and JavaScript method String.prototype.strike are deprecated

Project goals

  • educate people about React Server Components (outside of Next.js/Node/Vercel ecosystem)
  • not to use react-server-dom-webpack at all, opting for a simpler (to understand) implementation instead
  • get 10x performance improvement over Next.js for some synthetic use cases

Pre-requisites

Install air for development.

Run

air
# or
go run app.go

Test

air --build.bin "go test ./..." --build.exclude_regex "" --build.cmd "true"
# or
go test ./...

Caution

I don't understand how HTML escaping works in Go, so I assure you there's prenty of XSS vulnerabilities in this code.

This was built in public, you can watch it in the YT Playlist.

Profiling
