Build Time Prerendering Vs. Server Side Rendering(ssr)

This repo demonstrates the use of 2 different forms of Server Side Rendering.

Prerender

  • Happens at build time
  • Renders your application and replaces the dist index.html with a version rendered at the route /.

Server-Side Rendering(ssr)

  • Happens at runtime
  • Uses ngExpressEngine to render your application on the fly at the requested url.

Installation

  • npm install or yarn

Development (Client-side only rendering)

  • run npm run start which will start ng serve

Production (also for testing SSR/Pre-rendering locally)

npm run build:ssr && npm run serve:ssr - Compiles your application and spins up a Node Express to serve your Universal application on http://localhost:4000.

npm run build:prerender && npm run serve:prerender - Compiles your application and prerenders your applications files, spinning up a demo http-server so you can view it on http://localhost:8080 Note: To deploy your static site to a static hosting platform you will have to deploy the dist/browser folder, rather than the usual dist
