JavaScript Bloat in 2024 @ tonsky.me

February 26, 2024

I was a bit out of touch with modern front-end development. I also remembered articles about web bloat, how the average web page size was approaching several megabytes!

So all this time I was living under impression that, for example, if the average web page size is 3 MB, then JavaScript bundle should be around 1 MB. Surely content should still take the majority, no?Well, the only way to find out is to fuck around. Let’s do a reality check!
