What does that mean? (for someone not familiar with React)
2 comments

Nothing functional breaks because of this. Waterfall requests, which already had bad ux, have worse ux now.
It makes anything that does lazy loading in parallel noticeably worse by forcing waterfall-only loading, in order to make rendering and management of loading states slightly better.
What does 'rendering' mean in non javascript terms?

I have a feeling it means 'generate html' in english.

Recursively expanding components until you end up with nothing but HTML.
I hate tech hyperbolizing...
