Question: is lazy loading Slate and volto-slate possible?

[tisto]

@tiberiuichim I was wondering if it would be possible to lazy load volto-slate and slate itself?

We are checking out custom bundles regularly and volto-slate and slate are roughly 200k that might make a difference on loading times. Here is the lighthouse treemap report from one of our projects.

I'd just like to understand what's needed to accomplish lazy loading and how much effort it would cost. cc @sneridagh

we might lazy load some stuff in volto-slate, but not slate.js, unless we store html in the slate blocks.

draft-js is even worse, though, it's about double the total payload of volto-slate + dependencies, as far as I can recall (if you count all the draft/redraft/immutable libs). So short term, getting rid of draft would be even better.
