Answer

  1. Reduces initial load time by loading components only when they are needed.
  2. Decreases the amount of JavaScript that must be parsed and executed initially.
  3. Improves perceived performance, making the application feel faster to users.
  4. Helps in splitting the code into smaller bundles, which can be optimized separately.
  5. Trade-off may include increased complexity in managing loading states and additional network requests.
