STREAMING HTML OUT OF ORDER WITHOUT JAVASCRIPT

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Streaming HTML sends HTML from server to browser in chunks as it is generated. It took a back seat as single-page applications became the standard, but it has become more popular along with server-side rendering. A clear advantage to streaming HTML is you can render something immediately to indicate to the user that something is happening and you can start downloading assets like CSS and JavaScript earlier while you wait for the more time-consuming parts of the response to be generated.
