    SSR (Server-Side Rendering)

    Rendering web pages on the server for each request, sending fully formed HTML to the browser.

    Why it matters

    • Improves SEO by providing crawlable HTML content
    • Faster initial page load for users
    • Better performance on slow devices

    When to use

    • When SEO is critical for your application
    • When content changes frequently and must be fresh
    • When initial load performance is a priority

    Common mistakes

    • Using SSR when static generation would be faster
    • Not handling server/client code differences properly
    • Overloading the server with unnecessary SSR pages
