+   * See https://electric-sql.com/docs/guides/troubleshooting#slow-shapes-mdash-why-are-my-shapes-slow-in-the-browser-in-local-development
+   *
+   * When sharded, each shape stream gets a unique subdomain (e.g., `a7f2c.localhost`),
+   * which bypasses the browser HTTP/1.1 connection limits. This avoids the need to serve
+   * the development server over HTTP/2 (and thus HTTPS) in development.
+   *
+   * Options:
+   * - `'localhost'` - Automatically shard `localhost` and `*.localhost` URLs (the default)
+   * - `'always'` - Shard URLs regardless of the hostname
+   * - `'never'` - Disable sharding
+   * - `true` - Alias for `'always'`
+   * - `false` - Alias for `'never'`
+   *
+   * @default 'localhost'
