Summary from the TLDR newsletter

React Server Components (RSCs) are React components that run on the server instead of the client. Frameworks that support RSCs allow developers to define where code runs. Server components are able to fetch data from directly within the component and stream that data to the client, making fetching data fast and simple. This article discusses how Mux moved over to using RSCs and covers why Server Components matter, what they're good and bad at, how to use them, how to incrementally adopt them, and the kind of advanced patterns to use to keep RSCs under control.
