i actually think it's trying to imitate something like the cover of a book that you open to see what's inside
I like having a spot where I can give people a heads up about the content of the website :>
this also gives a bit of insight into how hits and views work. yesterday i had 1003 hits and 333 visits, but my bandwidth usage was only 10mb. thats only enough for ~10 people to view my website's homepage with javascript on. thus, my view count must be getting inflated by someone hotlinking something on my website (i assume its navlink)
so `new Date('2023-07-15 23:40 GMT-0400')` is valid in chrome and node.js, but not in firefox. this causes firefox to incorrectly request my api for commits since 1970-01-01. sveltekit didnt prerender that because it didnt crawl and find 1970-01-01 as it uses node.js, so firefox gets a 404. bam
Just use the library so much that it's worth having there to begin with! Svelte is there so you don't reinvent the wheel, so make it a supercar!
kallistero very true, but thats also ironically the issue. i just have a lot of code that i wrote lol. maybe im just overthinking tho, but also like 165kb transferred of html, css, and js...
That's smaller than a background image! If my page is being slow, it's because I let users just stuff one of my pages with lots of JavaScript effects. The devil's how much it takes to RUN the code as much as it's in how much it takes to load it. In F12, there's a "Memory" tab where you can see the JS heap size, and there's also a "Performance" tab where you can take a snapshot of where the page is putting resources.
