Overview

What is Qwik?

Qwik is a resumable web framework by Builder.io that achieves instant page loads by serializing application state into HTML and resuming execution in the browser on-demand. Unlike hydration-based frameworks, Qwik never replays bootstrap code — making it the first framework to achieve O(1) page load time regardless of app complexity.
