GitHub - sindresorhus/ponyfill: 🦄 Like polyfill but with pony pureness 🦄 Like polyfill but with pony pureness. Contribute to sindresorhus/ponyfill development by creating an account on GitHub.

The closest I can think of is a ponyfill, but that’s generally only used for JS implementations that avoid touching any globals: github.com/sindresorhus...

Although perhaps the idea could be generalised to encompass CSS as well?

I’m so tired of hearing “the DOM is slow”…

I’ve been doing performance for a while, and I’ve yet to find a single case where reading or writing to the DOM was a legitimate bottleneck.

Poor timing? Sure. Excessively large DOMs? Sure. But React won’t magically save you from those either.
