Thanks for the tips, it's definitely worthwhile looking at a separate droplet with Postgres or MySQL for higher traffic. I'm not seeing anywhere near enough traffic to put a strain on my humble SQLite db at the moment but it's worthwhile keeping an eye on.

Thanks for highlighting my article Syed Fazle Rahman , Hashnode is a great community and I'm happy to be part of it.

Thanks Serdar, You're right, if performance is a concern then it is important to accommodate users on lower powered devices. I'm not advocating you add animations every time but I think animations when used correctly can enrich the user experience. What I was trying to allude to is the use of animation can help contextualize actions for the user and communicate that your app is doing something. A modal with a slight fade-in or slide-in may be less jarring than simply appearing. An spinning activity indicator says to the user that the UI is not unresponsive and performing a task A subtle glow on a button can grab the user's attention for an on-boarding experience As with anything, you don't have to add animations to everything and you shouldn't all the time but if you do, I think Pose is a good way to do it for developers. It's easy to use and much more flexible than other approaches I've come across. The mantra of the web is progressive enhancement, if you can achieve a performant experience on lower-end devices but cater to powerful devices too, it's a win-win.
