REACT SERVER COMPONENTS SUPPORT WITHOUT A FRAMEWORK

Summary from the TLDR Web Dev newsletter

Forket is a tool that enables the use of React Server Components (RSC) without requiring a specific framework like Next.js. It works by splitting code into client and server versions, building a component dependency graph, and managing the serialization and hydration of components. To use it, run Forket during the build process to transform the code and then integrate runtime glue code into the HTTP server to handle component streaming and hydration.
