Appwrite Sites and Functions now stream their responses. Each chunk your code writes reaches the browser as soon as it is produced, so server-rendered pages show their ready parts first and AI output appears while the model is still writing.

- Server-rendered sites stream with no configuration. Frameworks that stream HTML, such as Next.js with Suspense, send the page shell first and fill in slower sections as their data loads.
- Functions stream their response when they return `res.sendStream()`.
- Streamed responses are still compressed with gzip or Brotli when the browser supports it.
