Hello. just wondering, trying Jetpack compose for web. Everything ok, but production file size is around 2,5 MB 🙂 any advice with kotlin JS IR dce? or some lazyloading for kotlin js?

[Big Chungus]

That's expected. IR JS is still not well optimised, even with more aggressive DCE

[Big Chungus]

Are you building it with jsProductionExecutable, btw? Dev builds are a ton larger.

[Big Chungus]

Lazy loading of kotlin.js is also out of question until ir-per-module compiler flag is stable.

@Big Chungus ah ok. trying to use your kmdc lib. I hope in one year timespan it will be better 🙂

We all do. But I think big size reductions will only come with es6 support

[fair_enough]

And when it is in roadmap?

[Big Chungus]

Postponed i think

[Big Chungus]

Good news is that this size increase is a lot less visible for bigger apps as it scales with diminishing increase

[fair_enough]

ah, ok, thanks

[Big Chungus]

Hello world app will still be over a megabyte I think, but then small full spa with couple of pages will not increase as much compared with source code difference and can be around 2mb if really optimised

[Big Chungus]

On a side note, please don't use kmdc in any apps that you care about. It's still way too experimental and the API will definitely change.

[Big Chungus]

For now I'd recommend plain web compose with tailwind css

[fair_enough]

I see. Just testing current status with simple app

We are working with Kotlin/JS team to decrease bundle size. There’s space for optimisations.
