   So Kitten’s build process (i.e., the time it takes to build Kitten itself) takes ~0.7 seconds on my ~1 year old desktop (Ryzen 7 5700G 3.8Ghz) vs ~1.4 seconds on my ~three-year-old Starlabs LabTop (renamed to the Starbook thanks to a suggestion by yours truly but sadly, not quickly enough).

   So, in summary, it’s bloody fast for something that results in a ~9MB bundle.

   (And that’s all thanks to esbuild.)

     Note that when you’re working with Kitten, your apps do not have a build process.

     You write HTML, CSS, JavaScript and, optionally, extend using first-class support for htmx and alpine.js as well as Kitten’s own Streaming HTML workflow¹. There’s also no scaffolding or generating a project with hundreds of files or anything. You just write the code for your app.

     @aral where does the 9MB live? What's the payload size delivered to the client?

     @ryanprior Nope, that’s the app server. It lives on your server.
