I will definitely use this approach in some of my Next sites, but I got a bit sad that the writer’s removing React but then has to go back to vainilla JavaScript and global libraries to recover the functionality they’ve lost.

At times like this is when I most think of Svelte’s aspiration, to remove the framework and compile its uses to regular DOM calls. It just bothers me so much with their magic syntax.

PS: Maybe something similar could be made for React Hooks? If a component doesn’t use any hooks it’s marked as static and doesn’t need the framework or to be re-hydrated. If it uses any, we only need to create a discrete React root for that component and its children.
