react-scan VS million

please look : React-Scan and Theo Browne's very useful video about this

In the example provided in react-scan repository, you will find this below code in aidenybai/react-scan/examples/sierpinski/src/index.jsx.

- how long it took for the GPU to actually draw to the screen

This data is visualized in an easy to understand ranked bar chart.

We also tell you exactly what props, state, and context caused a component to render. And when a component could of been memoized to avoid all its renders.

You can start using React Scan in your React app in <1 min using our script tag- installation reference: https://react-scan.com

iconSprite is assigned a value returned by DOMParser.documentElement. parseFromString accepts ICONS that is imported from packages/scan/src/web/assets/svgs/svgs.ts.

react-scan helps you scan for React performance issues and eliminate slow renders in your app.

The standard browser dev tools for profiling. React Developer Tools and React Scan to catch unnecessary re-renders.

While using react-scan, I noticed that when I updated a state in the store in component A, it caused a re-render of component B, leading to significant performance issues.

It is reportedly used on websites like Langfuse and Million.dev.

Million.js claims to make React 70% faster.

Hey HN! Founder of Million – We’re building a tool to that helps fix slow React code. Here is a quick demo: https://youtu.be/k-5jWgpRqlQ

Fixing web performance issues is hard. Every developer knows this experience: we insert console.log everywhere, catch some promising leads, but nothing happens before "time runs out." Eventually, the slow/buggy code never gets fixed, problems pile up on a backlog, and our end users are hurt.

We started Million to fix this. A VSCode extension that identifies slow code and suggests fixes (like ESLint, for performance!) The website is here: https://million.dev/blog/lint

I realized this was a problem when I tried to write an optimizing compiler for React in high school (src: https://github.com/aidenybai/million). It garnered a lot of interest (14K+ stars) and usage, but it didn't solve all user problems.

Traditionally, devtools either hinge on full static analysis OR runtime profiling. We found success in a mixture of the two with dynamic analysis. During compilation, we inject instrumentation where it's necessary. Here is an example:

  function App({ start }) {

To be honest, it fills me with great joy to finally be able to witness the launch of the 3.0.0 major release of Million.js; this is something that has been talked about since maybe July 2023, but, Aiden Bai finally assembled a team to get it out there and just last week on the day 2 February as at 8:00 am PST (Pacific Standard Time) Million v3 was released!!

preactjs may or may not be faster: https://preactjs.com/

Million.js is faster than preact, and lists a number of references under Acknowledgements: https://github.com/aidenybai/million#acknowledgments

> We use a novel approach to the virtual DOM called the block virtual DOM. You can read more on what the block virtual DOM is with Virtual DOM: Back in Block and how we make it happen in React with Behind the block().*

Consider replacing the default virtual DOM with an alternative solution. For instance, Million.js

In brief: I'm Aiden, 18, and have spent the past 2 years of high school working on Million.js, an open source React alternative with 11K stars on GitHub and hundreds of thousands of npm downloads.

Recently, I released automatic mode, which detects slow React components and automatically optimizes the reconciliation phase. It's still in beta but chugging along. It's around 70% faster than React on the JS Framework Benchmark and you can see how I did it here: https://million.dev/blog/virtual-dom

Either that or add signals to the library itself. I don't get why it isn't in there when a ton of React's competitors are either using signal-like behavior or forgoing the clearly-obsolete way React handles its VDOM. When a high schooler can create something to make the library faster, you know that the core team is either prioritizing the wrong things or someone managing React is too prideful to admit that a lot of what worked a decade ago doesn't work today.
