+## Logger

+
+With `logger` you can log messages using the framework's built-in logger. The `logger` object provides `info`, `warn`, `error`, and `debug` methods that integrate with the framework's logging system, providing consistent and formatted output.
+
+```jsx
+import { logger } from "@lazarv/react-server";
+
+export default function MyComponent() {
+  logger.info("Rendering MyComponent");
+
+  return <p>Hello World</p>;
+}
+```
+
+The `logger` automatically uses the framework's Vite-integrated logger in development mode for nicely formatted output, and falls back to `console` in production. It is context-aware — when called inside an `after()` callback, the log output is annotated with an `(after)` label so you can distinguish post-response logs from rendering logs.
+
+```jsx
+import { after, logger } from "@lazarv/react-server";
+
+export default function MyComponent() {
+  logger.info("Rendering component");
+
+  after(() => {
+    logger.info("Response sent"); // logged with (after) label in dev
+  });
+
+  return <p>Hello World</p>;
+}
+```
+
+The available methods are:
+
+| Method | Description |
+|---|---|
+| `logger.info(msg, ...args)` | Log an informational message |
+| `logger.warn(msg, ...args)` | Log a warning message |
+| `logger.error(msg, ...args)` | Log an error message or `Error` object |
+| `logger.debug(msg, ...args)` | Log a debug message |
+
+> **Note:** The `logger` can be used anywhere on the server — in components, server functions, middleware, route handlers, workers, and `after()` callbacks. It does not require a request context, but when one is available, it uses the context-specific logger instance.
+
+<Link name="after">
+## After
+</Link>
+
+With `after()` you can register a callback function that runs **after the response has been sent** to the client. This is useful for performing cleanup tasks, logging, analytics, or any side effects that should not delay the response.
+
+```jsx
+import { after, logger } from "@lazarv/react-server";
+
+export default function MyComponent() {
+  after(() => {
+    logger.info("Response sent to client.");
+  });
+
+  return <p>Hello World</p>;
+}
+```
+
+The `after()` hook can be called multiple times to register multiple callbacks. All registered callbacks run concurrently via `Promise.allSettled` after the response stream completes, so one failing callback does not prevent the others from running.
+
+```jsx
+import { after } from "@lazarv/react-server";
+
+export default function MyComponent() {
+  after(async () => {
+    await saveAnalytics({ page: "/home", timestamp: Date.now() });
+  });
+
+  after(async () => {
+    await cleanupTempFiles();
+  });
+
+  return <p>Home</p>;
+}
+```
+
+You can also use `after()` in server functions, middleware, route handlers, or any server-side code that runs within a request context:
+
+```jsx
+import { after } from "@lazarv/react-server";
+
+export async function submitForm(formData) {
+  "use server";
+
+  const data = Object.fromEntries(formData.entries());
+  await saveToDatabase(data);
+
+  after(async () => {
+    await sendNotificationEmail(data.email);
+  });
+}
+```
+
+> **Note:** The `after()` hook can only be called during a request. Calling it outside of a request context (e.g., at module scope or in a standalone script) will throw an error.

+# Workers
+
+The `"use worker"` directive in the `@lazarv/react-server` framework lets you offload heavy computations or blocking tasks to separate threads. On the server, functions marked with `"use worker"` run in a **Node.js Worker Thread** (`node:worker_threads`). On the client, the same directive runs your code in a **Web Worker** (browser `Worker` API). In both cases, you import and call worker functions as if they were ordinary async functions — the framework handles thread creation, message passing, and serialization transparently.
+
+All data flowing between the main thread and the worker is serialized using the **React Server Components (RSC) Flight protocol**. This means worker functions can return not only plain values but also **React elements**, **Suspense boundaries**, **Promises** (for deferred rendering with the `use()` hook), and **ReadableStreams**.
+
+<Link name="why-use-workers">
+## Why Use Workers?
+</Link>
+
+- **Non-blocking rendering:** CPU-intensive work (prime sieves, sorting, matrix math, image processing) runs off the main thread so it doesn't block server request handling or the browser UI.
+- **Concurrency:** Multiple worker calls can execute in parallel, improving throughput.
+- **Unified API:** The same `"use worker"` directive works in both server and client code. You write one module and the framework picks the right threading primitive for the environment.
+- **RSC-native serialization:** Because data is serialized via the Flight protocol, you can seamlessly pass and return React elements, Suspense boundaries, ReadableStreams, and deferred Promises between threads.
+
+<Link name="how-it-works">
+## How It Works
+</Link>
+
+When the framework encounters a file with `"use worker"` at the top, it replaces all exports with thin proxy functions at build time. The original module code is moved into a virtual module that runs inside the worker thread. When you call an exported function, the proxy:
+
+1. Serializes the arguments using the RSC Flight protocol.
+2. Posts a message to the worker thread (or Web Worker) with the function name and serialized arguments.
+3. The worker deserializes the arguments, executes the function, and serializes the return value back.
+4. The proxy deserializes the result and resolves the returned Promise.
+
+`ReadableStream` values are **transferred** (zero-copy) between threads via the `postMessage` transfer list, making streaming results efficient.
+
+<Link name="server-workers">
+## Server Workers
+</Link>
+
+On the server, `"use worker"` modules run in a **Node.js Worker Thread**. The worker is spawned lazily on the first call and reused for subsequent calls. If the worker crashes, it is automatically restarted.
+
+### Basic usage
+
+Create a file with the `"use worker"` directive at the top and export async functions:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+export async function computeFactorial(n) {
+  if (n <= 1) return 1;
+  return n * computeFactorial(n - 1);
+}
+```
+
+Import and call it from any server component:
+
+```jsx
+import { computeFactorial } from "./computeFactorial";
+
+export default async function FactorialPage({ number }) {
+  const result = await computeFactorial(42);
+  return <div>Factorial of 42 is {result}</div>;
+}
+```
+
+The `computeFactorial` function runs in a dedicated Worker Thread, keeping the main server thread free to handle other requests.
+
+### CPU-intensive computation
+
+Workers are ideal for CPU-heavy tasks that would otherwise block server-side rendering:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+export async function findPrimes(limit) {
+  const start = Date.now();
+  const sieve = new Uint8Array(limit + 1);
+  const primes = [];
+  for (let i = 2; i <= limit; i++) {
+    if (!sieve[i]) {
+      primes.push(i);
+      for (let j = i * i; j <= limit; j += i) sieve[j] = 1;
+    }
+  }
+  return {
+    count: primes.length,
+    largest: primes.at(-1),
+    duration: Date.now() - start,
+  };
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+import { findPrimes } from "./worker";
+
+export default async function PrimesPage() {
+  const result = await findPrimes(100_000);
+  return <div>Found {result.count} primes in {result.duration}ms</div>;
+}
+```
+
+### Accessing Node.js APIs
+
+Because server workers run in Node.js, you have full access to Node.js built-in modules:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+import { workerData } from "node:worker_threads";
+import { setTimeout } from "node:timers/promises";
+
+export async function getSystemInfo() {
+  await setTimeout(100);
+  const mem = process.memoryUsage();
+  return {
+    heapUsed: (mem.heapUsed / 1024 / 1024).toFixed(1) + " MB",
+    uptime: process.uptime().toFixed(1) + "s",
+    workerData: JSON.stringify(workerData),
+  };
+}
+```
+
+### Importing other modules
+
+Worker files can import from other modules. Only the file with the `"use worker"` directive becomes the worker entry — imported modules are bundled into the worker normally:
+
+```js
+// WorkerModule.mjs — a regular module, no directive needed
+export function getSystemInfo() {
+  return {
+    platform: process.platform,
+    nodeVersion: process.version,
+  };
+}
+```
+
+```js
+"use worker";
+
+import { getSystemInfo } from "./WorkerModule.mjs";
+
+export async function getWorkerSystemInfo() {
+  return getSystemInfo();
+}
+```
+
+<Link name="returning-react-elements">
+## Returning React Elements
+</Link>
+
+Because communication uses the RSC Flight protocol, worker functions can return **React elements**, including components with **Suspense boundaries**. The framework serializes the entire component tree and reconstructs it on the calling side.
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+import { Suspense } from "react";
+
+async function ExpensiveChart() {
+  // Simulate expensive data processing
+  const data = await computeChartData();
+  return (
+    <div className="chart">
+      <h3>Results</h3>
+      <ul>
+        {data.map((d) => <li key={d.id}>{d.label}: {d.value}</li>)}
+      </ul>
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+
+export async function getChart() {
+  return (
+    <Suspense fallback={<p>Loading chart...</p>}>
+      <ExpensiveChart />
+    </Suspense>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+import { getChart } from "./chartWorker";
+
+export default async function Dashboard() {
+  const chart = await getChart();
+  return <main>{chart}</main>;
+}
+```
+
+The `<Suspense>` boundary works as expected — the fallback is shown while `ExpensiveChart` resolves in the worker thread.
+
+<Link name="streaming-with-workers">
+## Streaming with Workers
+</Link>
+
+Worker functions can return a `ReadableStream`. The stream is **transferred** (zero-copy) between the worker and the main thread, making it efficient for large or incremental data. You typically pass the stream to a Client Component that reads it progressively.
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+export async function streamActivity() {
+  const steps = [
+    { phase: "init", msg: "Initializing" },
+    { phase: "process", msg: "Processing data" },
+    { phase: "compute", msg: "Running computation" },
+    { phase: "done", msg: "Complete" },
+  ];
+
+  return new ReadableStream({
+    async start(controller) {
+      for (const step of steps) {
+        controller.enqueue(
+          JSON.stringify({ ...step, time: new Date().toISOString() }) + "\n"
+        );
+        await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 300));
+      }
+      controller.close();
+    },
+  });
+}
+```
+
+Consume the stream in a Client Component:
+
+```jsx
+import { streamActivity } from "./worker";
+import { StreamViewer } from "./StreamViewer";
+
+export default async function ActivityPage() {
+  const stream = await streamActivity();
+  return <StreamViewer data={stream} />;
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+"use client";
+
+import { useState, useEffect } from "react";
+
+export function StreamViewer({ data }) {
+  const [entries, setEntries] = useState([]);
+
+  useEffect(() => {
+    const reader = data.getReader();
+    const decoder = new TextDecoder();
+
+    async function read() {
+      while (true) {
+        const { done, value } = await reader.read();
+        if (done) break;
+        const text = typeof value === "string" ? value : decoder.decode(value);
+        const lines = text.trim().split("\n").filter(Boolean);
+        for (const line of lines) {
+          setEntries((prev) => [...prev, JSON.parse(line)]);
+        }
+      }
+    }
+    read();
+  }, [data]);
+
+  return (
+    <ul>
+      {entries.map((e, i) => (
+        <li key={i}>[{e.phase}] {e.msg}</li>
+      ))}
+    </ul>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+<Link name="abort-signals">
+## Abort Signals with `useSignal`
+</Link>
+
+On the server, you can use `useSignal()` from `@lazarv/react-server` inside a worker function to get the current request's `AbortSignal`. This allows you to cancel long-running operations when the client disconnects or the request is aborted.
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+import { useSignal } from "@lazarv/react-server";
+
+export async function streamActivity() {
+  const signal = useSignal();
+
+  return new ReadableStream({
+    async start(controller) {
+      for (let i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
+        if (signal?.aborted) break;
+        controller.enqueue(`Step ${i}\n`);
+        await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 100));
+      }
+      controller.close();
+    },
+  });
+}
+```
+
+When the request is aborted (e.g., the client navigates away), `signal.aborted` becomes `true` and the worker stops producing data.
+
+> **Note:** `useSignal()` is only available in server workers. It is not supported in client-side Web Workers.
+
+<Link name="client-workers">
+## Client-Side Web Workers
+</Link>
+
+The same `"use worker"` directive works in client-side code. When a `"use client"` component imports from a `"use worker"` module, the framework automatically creates a **Web Worker** in the browser. The function arguments and return values are serialized using the RSC Flight protocol and transferred between the main thread and the Web Worker.
+
+This keeps the browser's main thread responsive while heavy computation runs in the background — no UI jank, no frozen interactions.
+
+### Basic usage
+
+Create a worker module (no `"use client"` needed — just `"use worker"`):
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+export async function fibonacci(n) {
+  const start = performance.now();
+  let a = 0n, b = 1n;
+  for (let i = 0; i < n; i++) {
+    [a, b] = [b, a + b];
+  }
+  return {
+    n,
+    digits: a.toString().length,
+    duration: (performance.now() - start).toFixed(2),
+  };
+}
+
+export async function sortBenchmark(size) {
+  const start = performance.now();
+  const arr = Float64Array.from({ length: size }, () => Math.random());
+  arr.sort();
+  return {
+    size: size.toLocaleString(),
+    duration: (performance.now() - start).toFixed(2),
+    median: arr[Math.floor(arr.length / 2)].toFixed(8),
+  };
+}
+```
+
+Use it from a Client Component:
+
+```jsx
+"use client";
+
+import { useState, useCallback } from "react";
+import { fibonacci, sortBenchmark } from "./WebWorker.jsx";
+
+export function ComputePanel() {
+  const [result, setResult] = useState(null);
+  const [loading, setLoading] = useState(false);
+
+  const runFibonacci = useCallback(async () => {
+    setLoading(true);
+    const res = await fibonacci(1000);
+    setResult(res);
+    setLoading(false);
+  }, []);
+
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <button onClick={runFibonacci} disabled={loading}>
+        {loading ? "Computing..." : "Compute Fibonacci(1000)"}
+      </button>
+      {result && (
+        <p>{result.digits} digits, computed in {result.duration}ms</p>
+      )}
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+The `fibonacci` call runs entirely in a Web Worker. The browser UI stays responsive even during heavy BigInt computation.
+
+### Returning deferred Promises
+
+Client-side worker functions can return objects containing `Promise` values. You can consume these with React's `use()` hook for deferred rendering:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+export async function analyzeDataset() {
+  return {
+    status: "processing",
+    data: new Promise((resolve) => {
+      setTimeout(() => {
+        const values = Array.from({ length: 10000 }, () => Math.random() * 100);
+        const mean = values.reduce((a, b) => a + b) / values.length;
+        resolve({
+          samples: values.length,
+          mean: mean.toFixed(2),
+        });
+      }, 2000);
+    }),
+  };
+}
+```
+
+```jsx
+"use client";
+
+import { Suspense, use, useState, useCallback } from "react";
+import { analyzeDataset } from "./WebWorker.jsx";
+
+function AnalysisResult({ dataPromise }) {
+  const data = use(dataPromise);
+  return <pre>{JSON.stringify(data, null, 2)}</pre>;
+}
+
+export function AnalysisPanel() {
+  const [result, setResult] = useState(null);
+
+  const run = useCallback(async () => {
+    const res = await analyzeDataset();
+    setResult(res);
+  }, []);
+
+  return (
+    <div>
+      <button onClick={run}>Analyze</button>
+      {result && (
+        <Suspense fallback={<p>Analyzing...</p>}>
+          <AnalysisResult dataPromise={result.data} />
+        </Suspense>
+      )}
+    </div>
+  );
+}
+```
+
+### Streaming from Web Workers
+
+Client-side workers can also return `ReadableStream` values. The stream is **transferred** (zero-copy) from the Web Worker to the main thread:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+export async function streamComputations() {
+  const operations = [
+    "Generating matrix",
+    "Computing dot product",
+    "Normalizing vectors",
+    "Finalizing results",
+  ];
+
+  return new ReadableStream({
+    async start(controller) {
+      for (let i = 0; i < operations.length; i++) {
+        const result = Array.from({ length: 50000 }, () => Math.random())
+          .reduce((a, b) => a + b, 0);
+        controller.enqueue(
+          JSON.stringify({
+            step: i + 1,
+            total: operations.length,
+            operation: operations[i],
+            result: result.toFixed(2),
+          }) + "\n"
+        );
+        await new Promise((r) => setTimeout(r, 350));
+      }
+      controller.close();
+    },
+  });
+}
+```
+
+<Link name="edge-runtime">
+## Edge Runtime Behavior
+</Link>
+
+On **edge and serverless runtimes** (Cloudflare Workers, Vercel Edge, Netlify Edge, Deno Deploy), `node:worker_threads` is not available. In these environments, the framework automatically falls back to **in-process execution** — your worker functions are called directly without any threading or serialization overhead.
+
+This means `"use worker"` modules remain fully portable: the same code works in Node.js (with real worker threads) and on the edge (with direct execution). You don't need to change your code or add conditional logic.
+
+> **Note:** On edge runtimes, worker functions do **not** run in a separate thread. They execute in the same process as the rest of your server code. This means they won't provide the concurrency benefits of true worker threads, but your code remains compatible across all deployment targets.
+
+<Link name="worker-detection">
+## Worker Detection
+</Link>
+
+The framework provides an `isWorker()` helper function that lets you detect at runtime whether your code is executing inside a worker thread. This is useful when you need to conditionally run logic that should only happen inside a real worker — for example, calling `process.exit()` to terminate the worker without accidentally killing the main server process.
+
+Import `isWorker` from `@lazarv/react-server/worker`. This import path works in both server workers (Node.js Worker Threads) and client workers (Web Workers):
+
+```jsx
+import { isWorker } from "@lazarv/react-server/worker";
+```
+
+### Server worker example
+
+A common use case is safely terminating a worker thread. On edge runtimes, worker functions run in-process, so calling `process.exit()` would kill the entire server. Use `isWorker()` to guard against this:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+import { isWorker } from "@lazarv/react-server/worker";
+
+export async function terminate() {
+  if (isWorker()) {
+    process.exit(0); // only exits the worker thread, not the server
+  }
+}
+```
+
+### Client worker example
+
+In a client-side Web Worker, `isWorker()` also returns `true`, letting you detect the worker environment:
+
+```jsx
+"use worker";
+
+import { isWorker } from "@lazarv/react-server/worker";
+
+export async function checkIsWorker() {
+  return isWorker(); // true when running in a Web Worker
+}
+```
+
+> **Note:** On Edge runtimes where `"use worker"` functions execute in-process, `isWorker()` returns `false` because the code is not actually running in a separate worker thread.
+
+<Link name="constraints">
+## Constraints and Limitations
+</Link>
+
+Keep the following constraints in mind when using `"use worker"`:
+
+### Serialization
+
+- All function arguments and return values must be serializable via the **RSC Flight protocol**. This includes plain objects, arrays, strings, numbers, booleans, `null`, `undefined`, React elements, `Promise` values, and `ReadableStream` instances.
+- You **cannot** pass non-serializable values such as functions, class instances (unless they are React components), `WeakMap`, `WeakSet`, `Symbol`, or closures as arguments or return values.
+- Both arguments and return values are serialized using the RSC Flight protocol on **all environments** (server and client). This ensures consistent serialization behavior regardless of where the worker runs.
+
+### Module-level directive
+
+- The `"use worker"` directive must be the **first statement** in the file (after any comments). It applies to the **entire module** — all exports from that file become worker functions.
+- You cannot selectively mark individual functions as workers within a module. If you need some functions to run in a worker and others on the main thread, put them in separate files.
+
+### Async functions only
+
+- All exported functions from a `"use worker"` module must be **async** (or return a Promise). This is because communication between threads is inherently asynchronous.
+
+### No shared state
+
+- Workers run in a **separate thread** with their own memory space. They do **not** share state with the main thread. Global variables, module-level state, or in-memory caches in the worker are isolated from the main thread and from other requests.
+- Server workers are **singletons per module** — the same Worker Thread instance is reused across all requests. Be mindful of module-level mutable state, as it persists across requests.
+
+### Server-specific APIs
+
+- `useSignal()` is only available in **server workers**. Client-side Web Workers do not have abort signal integration.
+- `workerData` from `node:worker_threads` is accessible in server workers but not in client-side Web Workers.
+
+### Client-side constraints
+
+- Client-side Web Workers are created **per proxy creation** (per import). Each import of a `"use worker"` module creates a new Web Worker instance.
+- Web Workers do not have access to the DOM. They can only return data to the main thread — they cannot directly manipulate the page.
+
+### Edge/serverless constraints
+
+- On edge runtimes, `"use worker"` functions execute **in-process** (no separate thread). This means CPU-intensive work will still block the main execution context.
+- The in-process fallback means no serialization overhead but also no true parallelism.
+
+### Development mode
+
+- In development, the framework uses Vite's `ModuleRunner` inside the worker thread, providing full **Hot Module Replacement (HMR)** support. Changes to worker files are picked up automatically without restarting the dev server.

@@ -15,3 +15,5 @@ For error handling, you can learn about how to use the built-in [error boundary]
 You can also learn about some small, but useful modes of the framework in this section, like [partial pre-rendering](/framework/ppr), [cluster mode](/framework/cluster) or [middleware mode](/framework/middleware-mode). Partial pre-rendering is useful when you want to pre-render only parts of your app. Cluster mode is useful when you want to run your app in a multi-process environment. While middleware mode is useful when you want to run your app as a middleware in an existing server, like Express or NestJS.
 
 You can learn about how to implement a micro-frontend architecture using the framework in the [micro-frontends](/framework/micro-frontends) section. The framework provides a set of tools to help you implement micro-frontends in your app. You can use the `RemoteComponent` component to load a micro-frontend from a remote URL and render it in your app using server-side rendering. Server-side rendering supported `iframe` fragments for React applications!
+
+The framework also provides [Workers](/framework/worker) to offload heavy computations to separate threads using the `"use worker"` directive. On the server, worker functions run in Node.js Worker Threads, and on the client, they run in Web Workers — all with transparent RSC-based serialization. Workers can return plain values, React elements with Suspense, ReadableStreams, and deferred Promises.

+ * Works identically in both server-side and client-side `"use worker"` modules.

+ *
+ * @returns `true` if inside a `"use worker"` worker, `false` otherwise.

+ * @example
+ *
+ * ```jsx

+ *
+ * import { isWorker } from "@lazarv/react-server/worker";
+ *
+ * export async function terminate() {
+ *   if (isWorker()) {
