 Why Islands and Lazy Loading Matter
-----------------------------------

A Livewire page that boots five components on the initial request pays the full PHP hydration cost upfront — database queries, authorization checks, and serialization all happen before the first byte reaches the browser. Livewire v3 ships three complementary tools to break that cost apart: **lazy components**, **deferred properties**, and the **island pattern** (composing independent component trees). Used together they let you render a fast, mostly-static shell and hydrate interactive regions only when the browser is ready.

------------------------------------

Adding `#[Lazy]` to a component class tells Livewire to render a placeholder on the server and fire a subsequent network request to hydrate the real component after the page loads.
