Here is an example: /lib/dashboard/dashboard_script.ts

When you aren’t using framework like components state restoration is a single function that runs only on page load. There is no state explosion and on localhost the SPA fully renders and finishes state restoration in about 105ms from http request.

Thanks, but this is a server-side thing and has nothing to do with client-side DOM manipulation?! Sure, you can put stuff on the server and do HTTP over the wire. It's oftentimes the better solution. But there are apps/tools that are rightfully an SPA (like tldraw or excalidraw for example) and can run local-first and offline in a browser. You build the entire app in JS and you'd need a bit more than vanilla Web components for that if you want to avoid client-side state explosion.

Mate, if you are proud and happy to code this way, congratulations. That code is an absolute nightmare tho. Your eyes are trained on it so you think this is as good as an ergonomic framework.
