Dynamic Rendering in 2024 - SSR only for Crawlers?

🔍️ SEO is crucial for public-facing applications, resulting in the need of SSR for modern SPAs. But, why not enable SSR only for crawlers so they can get all the data while the users see a plain SPA? This approach is called "Dynamic Rendering"!

Anyone used Dynamic Rendering already? Let me know how you did and why!

I could write a love letter on almost all of your videos. So well prepared and calmly executed. Really dense without being overwhelming. The right amount of authenticity and ease. And of course, expert knowledge which is a given at this point. I especially love how you avoid drastic absolutes like „you should never xyz“

This video in particular was a bit out of my usecase, but I still enjoyed every minute of it.

What do you think about text format and blog posts? In this era dominated by video content, is text still relevant for building a personal brand?

I think your line 14 can be replaced with "event.context.nuxt ??= {}" using the new-ish nullish coalesecing operator
