Introduction:
Million js is a library that can be used to speed up the compilation of React and Next js apps. It does this by using a custom compiler that is optimized for performance. Million js also uses a custom virtual DOM that is more efficient than the default React virtual DOM Million js enhances React / Next js performance up to 70%.
How to use Million js:
To use Million js, you need to install it and then add the block()
function to your React code. The block()
function takes a React component as its input and returns a new component that is optimized for performance.
Here is an example of how to use Million.js:
Normal react snippet
export default function App() {
return (
<>
<p>Hello world</p>
</>
);
};
Same code snippet with Million.js
import { block } from 'million/react';
export default block(function App() {
return (
<>
<p>Hello world</p>
</>
);
});
The block()
function will optimize the App
component for performance. This will make the compilation of the React app faster.
How Million.js works:
Million.js works by using a custom compiler that is optimized for performance. The compiler uses several techniques to speed up the compilation of React code, including:
Using a custom virtual DOM that is more efficient than the default React virtual DOM.
Optimizing the code for specific browsers and devices.
Reducing the amount of code that needs to be compiled.
Installing Million.js:
You can install Million.js using the following command:
npm
npm install million
pnpm
pnpm install million
yarn
yarn add million
Using Million.js with Next.js:
If you are using Next.js, you need to rename your Next.config.js
file to Next.config.mjs
and then add the following code to the file:
import million from 'million/compiler';
const nextConfig = {
reactStrictMode: true,
};
export default million.next(nextConfig);
This will make Next js use the Million js compiler and you can easily compile react code up to 70% faster.
