Really small front-end framework. I used React, and Angular 10, but if you are interested in developing really fast loading websites, this is the framework to go. At PS2PDF.com we use PreactJS and able to achive 90+ on PageSpeed without much effort on optimization, https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/?url=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.ps2pdf.com%2Fvideo-compressor&hl=en_GB&tab=desktop
