Word of the week: Million

Today, we're not referring to monetary value, but rather to a revolutionary web framework called Million.js.

Developed by Aiden Bai, a recent high school graduate, Million.js has taken the React JS community by storm with its remarkable 70% performance improvement on React JS components, as confirmed by the recent JS Framework Benchmark.

In the contemporary internet landscape, interactive web applications built with declarative JavaScript User Interface (UI) libraries have become increasingly prevalent. However, existing libraries mainly focus on runtime execution and rely on users to load and render web applications. This is where Million.js truly excels.

With its remarkable speed and lightweight nature (less than 4kb), Million.js seamlessly integrates with React. It simplifies the creation of web apps, utilizing a straightforward approach of wrapping a React component. Moreover, Million.js enhances rendering and loading speeds, thanks to its finely tuned and optimized virtual DOM, thereby reducing the overhead typically associated with React.

It's truly astonishing to comprehend that a teenager has surpassed the achievements of an entire team of elite engineers at Meta. Nevertheless, the benchmarks unequivocally support these claims, as Million.js ranks among the top performers in the JS Framework Benchmark.

Mil the Lion, the friendly mascot is what Aiden chose for his project logo.
