⚡ About the Event:
Server Components are one of the most powerful yet misunderstood features in React. While frameworks make them easier to use, they often hide how the mechanism truly works.
In this talk, Krasimir Tsonev will break things down and show how to build a Server Components setup from scratch, using just vanilla JavaScript and Node.js – no frameworks, no magic.

You’ll explore how server-side rendering of components actually works, how streaming and promises are handled, how to set up the client, and how to manage server actions efficiently.
It’s a deep dive into the core principles behind modern frameworks – perfect for those who love understanding the “why” behind the “how.”
