A while back we implemented a heuristic that if a chunk was large it was assumed to be produced by the render and thus was safe to stream which results in transferring the underlying object memory. Later we ran into an issue where a precomputed chunk grew large enough to trigger this hueristic and it started causing renders to fail because once a second render had occurred the precomputed chunk would not have an underlying buffer of bytes to send and these bytes would be omitted from the stream. We implemented a technique to detect large precomputed chunks and we enforced that these always be cloned before writing. Unfortunately our test coverage was not perfect and there has been for a very long time now a usage pattern where if you complete a boundary in one flush and then complete a boundary that has stylehsheet dependencies in another flush you can get a large precomputed chunk that was not being cloned to be sent twice causing streaming errors. I've thought about why we even went with this solution in the first place and I think it was a mistake. It relies on a dev only check to catch paired with potentially version specific order of operations on the streaming side. This is too unreliable. Additionally the low limit of view size for Edge is not used in Node.js but there is not real justification for this. In this change I updated the view size for edge streaming to match Node at 2048 bytes which is still relatively small and we have no data one way or another to preference 512 over this. Then I updated the assertion logic to error anytime a precomputed chunk exceeds the size. This eliminates the need to clone these chunks by just making sure our view size is always larger than the largest precomputed chunk we can possibly write. I'm generally in favor of this for a few reasons. First, we'll always know during testing whether we've violated the limit as long as we exercise each stream config because the precomputed chunks are created in module scope. Second, we can always split up large chunks so making sure the precomptued chunk is smaller than whatever view size we actually desire is relatively trivial.
React · 
React is a JavaScript library for building user interfaces.
- Declarative: React makes it painless to create interactive UIs. Design simple views for each state in your application, and React will efficiently update and render just the right components when your data changes. Declarative views make your code more predictable, simpler to understand, and easier to debug.
- Component-Based: Build encapsulated components that manage their own state, then compose them to make complex UIs. Since component logic is written in JavaScript instead of templates, you can easily pass rich data through your app and keep the state out of the DOM.
- Learn Once, Write Anywhere: We don't make assumptions about the rest of your technology stack, so you can develop new features in React without rewriting existing code. React can also render on the server using Node and power mobile apps using React Native.

Installation
React has been designed for gradual adoption from the start, and you can use as little or as much React as you need:
- Use Quick Start to get a taste of React.
- Add React to an Existing Project to use as little or as much React as you need.
- Create a New React App if you're looking for a powerful JavaScript toolchain.
Documentation
You can find the React documentation on the website.
Check out the Getting Started page for a quick overview.
The documentation is divided into several sections:
- Quick Start
- Tutorial
- Thinking in React
- Installation
- Describing the UI
- Adding Interactivity
- Managing State
- Advanced Guides
- API Reference
- Where to Get Support
- Contributing Guide

Examples
We have several examples on the website. Here is the first one to get you started:
import { createRoot } from 'react-dom/client';
function HelloMessage({ name }) {
return <div>Hello {name}</div>;
}
const root = createRoot(document.getElementById('container'));
root.render(<HelloMessage name="Taylor" />);
This example will render "Hello Taylor" into a container on the page.
You'll notice that we used an HTML-like syntax; we call it JSX. JSX is not required to use React, but it makes code more readable, and writing it feels like writing HTML.
