Hilla FAQ - SSR #3385

Open landsman opened 2 months ago

landsman commented 2 months ago

Hello guys,

I did not find any mention of SSR for the front end. I think that this is a crucial topic for frontend developers, who care about SEO.

Can you please write down if it's possible to use it or even use partial rendering?

I am missing it here: https://hilla.dev/docs/react/start/faq

I am happy to create PR if you provide me with info or links on how to make it work.

If you think this issue is important, add a 👍 reaction to help the community and maintainers prioritize this issue.

Hilla does currently not target the type of application where SEO would be important. Furthermore, there's some significant technical challenges with server-side rendering of a TypeScript frontend on a Java server. I understand that this could be doable with GraalVM but that's quite a special case.

Okay, so client side only. This is important to say, ideally in FAQ. Do you agree?

Legioth commented 2 months ago

The FAQ might indeed be suitable since that's where we also describe how Hilla relates to various other similar-ish concepts such as Quarkus or microservices.
