Reviewer scorecard
“Stateful edge servers are the right abstraction for real-time. The Cloudflare acquisition ensures long-term viability.”
“Non-negotiable for any serious component library. Visual testing, docs, and interaction testing in one place.”
“Durable Objects made simple. For real-time features without WebSocket infrastructure complexity, PartyKit is excellent.”
“Setup can be painful and builds are slow, but the alternative — no component isolation — is worse.”
“Edge-first real-time infrastructure is the future of multiplayer applications. PartyKit is building that.”
“The best way to browse and understand a design system. Addons for accessibility and responsive testing are invaluable.”
