## Getting Started

Visit [https://paretojs.tech/guides/introduction](https://paretojs.tech/guides/introduction) to get started with Pareto.

## What is Pareto?

Pareto is a lightweight React SSR framework that prioritizes streaming. Built on Vite for instant dev starts, it provides file-based routing, NDJSON streaming for client navigation, per-route head management via React components, and Immer-powered state with automatic SSR hydration.

```bash
npx create-pareto my-app
cd my-app && npm install && npm run dev
```

## Performance

Pareto is built for throughput. In CI benchmarks against Next.js, React Router, and TanStack Start on identical hardware (Node 22, Ubuntu, 4 CPUs):

| Scenario | Pareto | Next.js | React Router | TanStack Start |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| **Data Loading** | **2,733/s** | 293/s | 955/s | 1,386/s |
| **Streaming SSR** | **247/s** | 236/s | 247/s | 247/s |
| **API / JSON** | **3,675/s** | 2,212/s | 1,950/s | — |
| **Static SSR** | 2,224/s | **3,328/s** | 997/s | 2,009/s |

Under ramp-up load (1→1000 concurrent connections), Pareto sustains the highest QPS before hitting the p99 < 500ms threshold:

| Scenario | Pareto | Next.js | React Router | TanStack Start |
|---|---:|---:|---:|---:|
| **Data Loading** | **2,735/s** | 331/s | 1,044/s | 1,458/s |
| **Streaming SSR** | **2,022/s** | 310/s | 807/s | 960/s |
| **API / JSON** | **3,556/s** | 1,419/s | 1,912/s | — |

Client JS sent to the browser: **62 KB** gzipped (vs Next.js 233 KB, React Router 100 KB, TanStack Start 101 KB).

In practice: a data-loading page serving 2,000 req/s at peak needs **1 Pareto server** vs **6 Next.js instances**. For streaming SSR, it's 1 vs 7.
