Solidjs: Simple and performant reactivity for building user interfaces
Looks like its still in the discussion phase, did not see a timeline but also did not read super close. Did learn about the tanstack-router which I had never heard of, so that was worth looking this up right there ;)

Are there any go backends that work with solid?
I did try this but I'm not sure what you mean with the ssrLoadFrom. Is there any documentation on this, all I could find was the examples folder in solidjs: solid-ssr?

Solid JS compared to svelte?
This is very true. I really hate svelte single file components. But then I tried JSX for breaking things down. I love solid but I don't feel really good about angle brackets within C style syntax. I saw this Scala library that stick with simple statically typed function syntax than html tags. I don't understand why people still wants to stick with xml like tags. In laminar markup is written like this scala div( h1("Hello world", color := "red"), inputCaption, input(inputMods, name := "fullName"), div( ">>", button("Submit"), "<<" ) ) I wish solid team makes their HyperScript syntax as performant as JSX.

The need for TypeSafety HTTPClient and HTTP Resource
With both the HTTP Resource (more on that later) and the HTTP Client, we need to build the HTTP Resource request. In the upcoming PR for HTTP Resource, Angular has separated types and exposed a new type called HttpResourceRequest. If this is unavailable at the time of reading, you can take the following interface, which is extracted from the PR:

UmiJS: the Shaolin of web frameworks
UmiJS is an [extremely] pluggable enterprise-scale React-based web application [meta]framework, offering (as many analogs) routing, build tools, dedicated design system, and everything in between. From what I could see during my reconnaissance, its main market is huge enterprise monorepos for React websites and web applications (something very opposite to tools like, for instance Waku, if you will). Umi itself is not exactly a metaframework though, as I'd say, but rather something React would be if it aimed to resemble Angular as of version 19 — the powerful SPA framework with optional support for SSR/SSG and a whole lot of build options making it very customizable and approachable for performance optimizations specific to each particular use case. Its plugins-driven extensibility is something resembling Vite but for a more dedicated goal of building rich user interfaces. And there's more.
