Duckdb and datafusion are super cool! But they are VERY large wasm blobs (30-40mb each). This is often larger than the data you’re trying to load. And they add complexity with serving and deploying wasm files.
Hyparquet is 10kb of pure js, and so its trivial to deploy on a modern webapp, and wins hands down on time-to-first-data metric.
