I agree with a lot of this: the developer productivity and page load performance gains can be drastic.<p>But I think it&#x27;s weird to make a claim such as &quot;we made our web app small in size because we need network bandwidth and CPU power for video streaming&quot;<p>Frameworks for JS UI rendering have a potential to actually improve CPU usage by leveraging various techniques under the hood to minimize repaints. Using &quot;heavy&quot; frameworks can actually improve page performance.<p>Also, doesn&#x27;t the JS bundle size pale in comparison to video and audio bandwidth?<p>I&#x27;d like to see how using React or Angular can affect WebRTC performance.

I am sure this works really well for apps with minimal UI as it is the case.
