GitHub Sponsors is live for rari — React Server Components on a Rust runtime.
46.5x faster than Next.js. 74K req/sec. Sub-ms latency. 53% smaller bundles. Survived HN front page at ~400MB memory.
I want to go full-time on this. Help me prove open source doesn't need a corporate budget to win.

If there's one thing I'm proud of about 2025, it's fully committing to Rust and not giving up the many times I almost have. It's been difficult, but so rewarding. Proud to be a Rustacean 🦀
