Streaming HTML – Frontend Masters Boost
March 12, 2024
Quick summary: Streamed HTML is as you imagine it. Rather than serving the entire HTML document at once, servers serve pieces of it. The browser gets these pieces and can start working on them, even rendering them, so the page can appear to load more quickly. It’s similar to how a progressive JPG loads or how video tends to “stream” as it plays on the web. While browsers can handle it, the rather large caveat is that not all other languages and frameworks are built to handle it.
