Exploring the Grand Unifying Architecture of Frontend

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 22/09/2026

I've finally been able to put all frontend solutions on the same grid by recognizing them as a product of 2 axes and 3 core responsibilities. HTMX, LiveView, RSCs, islands, SPAs, Sync Engines... None express what another can't. They differ in efficiency and ergonomics. 👇

When I saw this yesterday(since been fixed). I thought it was piling on the recent Cursor reveal. But then I realized these docs are from April. It's not a conspiracy. It's something worse, because there's no one to argue with. Nobody Argued For Your Stack: dev.to/playfulprogr...

Part 3 was partially inspired by a @danabra.mov (React Core team) talk. But I think you will really like how Solid 2.0 closes the gap.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 24/08/2026

I still find it crazy how we are still discovering primitives that completely collapse decades of carefully crafted imperative code. Part 2 is probably more impactful as a live demo. But picture it paints is still very powerful. www.solidjs.com/blog/async-s...

SolidJS

Solid is a purely reactive library. It was designed from the ground up with a reactive core. It's influenced by reactive principles developed by previous libraries.

For those looking for more details after the release announcement here they are. Solid's approach to Async is one of kind. And more than that it has real implications. www.solidjs.com/blog/async-s...

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 28/07/2026

Hmm..that sounds aggressive. I know React is the most popular framework but it isn't the only framework. Vue also prefixes with `use`. I wonder if we need to isolate stuff similar to JSXImportSource..

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 23/07/2026

This is a cool demo right? I like collecting things SolidJS does that others don't but I'm not sure they matter to everyone. In SolidJS JSX is just a DOM element so nothing stops you from moving it around (it can only be inserted into the DOM in a single location). stackblitz.com/edit/solidjs...

The best part of AI is how much it separates hard (worthwhile) design from tedious work. Changes the value of things. Roughly equal amount of code: Perfect Async Reactive System ~ 1 Year Solid's JSX Compiler in Rust ~ 1 Day

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 10/04/2026

My typical demo follows a formula. 1. Present a problem 2. Lead the audience to a simple solution 3. Show the simple solution doesn't work (in today's tools). 4. Spend significant time fixing 5. Show same simple solution in Solid, but it works AI throws a wrench in this.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 07/04/2026

I've seen talk of AI removing the need for frameworks. As an author using AI to assist writing, it feels we aren't there. Trying to debug/fix framework code without introducing regressions is non-trivial. To think app code isn't going to be missing edge cases is fanciful.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 23/03/2026

Async in frameworks happens in 4 phases: 1. create 2. consume 3. block 4. read The problem? Most fuse 2 & 3. Consumption triggers blocking. This puts DX (coloration) at odds with UX (blocking). Solid 2.0 snaps them to the poles. Colorless logic. Non-blocking UI.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 12/03/2026

The odd part of advocating for Solid is having to defend React first. A lot of the loudest anti‑React takes fixate on ergonomics or vibes, not the actual architectural issues. You can’t explain Solid’s advantages until you clear that fog.

The next few years are going to be interesting. Despite the popular belief that the world is going to slop. Things like this tend to do the opposite. We've been blessed working in software to have one of the greatest professions.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 18/02/2026

I just really like JSX. I don't mean the syntax. I mean that it has no set semantics. Just a grammar you can use as you see fit. There are some limitations on syntax/symbols etc.. but I can make `bind:myproperty={something}` do whatever. Most tooling is reasonable. Even if it was made for React.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 18/02/2026

I've been looking at `html` tagged template literals again and man the state of things sucks. I'd be so happy if @developit.dev `htm` was the accepted format and we could just get typing going, but as usual there are competing standards and in a lot of ways it makes sense.

Ryan Carniato @ryansolid.bsky.social · 12/02/2026

Some people were wondering how you could build additional pending affordances or do error handling on top of optimistic data. I'm not a designer but I think this updated demo shows the possibility. Every action randomly fails 33% of the time. stackblitz.com/edit/github-...

I want to thank @replay-io.bsky.social. I honestly don't know how I would have debugged an issue I had if not for their time travel debugger. Certain nodes would "stick" after hovering, and required very specific timing to reproduce.
