I prompted Opus 5.5 "port Armada to SolidJS" and it took about 6 hours but it actually fucking did it. It looks perfect, 1:1, functionality is all perfect. I can't even tell the difference at all. The bundle size is only like 14% smaller and the performance boost isn't proven yet, so I'm not going to pull the trigger yet. I just wanted to see if it was possible. Several years ago, Sonnet 3.5 couldn't tell the difference between SolidJS and React and kept fucking everything up. Now it can do it. Potential wins for mkstack across the board if we convert everything to SolidJS.
