Today we talk with Adam Bradley, the Director of Technology at Builder.io. He previously worked at Ionix as a creator of Ionic Framework, a mobile UI interface builder for web applications, and StencilJS which powers Ionix. Currently he works on both Qwik and Partytown at Builder.io.In today’s episode we dive into Partytown, discussing the unique ways it improves website performance. When there are so many third-party scripts injected into the average website, you can quickly lose control of speed. We learn how Partytown addresses this with a remote web worker, and how it still gets the data it needs synchronously.

Today we talk with Misko Hevery about solving the loading speed issue for websites constructed using JavaScript frameworks. Such websites are often slow to load, which is detrimental to their ability so succeed. After 16 years at Google, where he created Angular, he now works on the Qwik framework at Builder.io, a headless visual CMS. We learn how Qwik dramatically improves page speed metrics through an innovative architecture that enables resumability instead of hydration. We talk about how this is implemented, and about how you can get started with it.
