Prerendering
Nice PickDevelopers should use prerendering to optimize websites for faster initial page loads, better search engine indexing, and improved user experience, especially for content-heavy or marketing sites
Pros
- +It is ideal for blogs, documentation sites, and e-commerce product pages where content changes infrequently, as it reduces server load and ensures consistent performance across devices
- +Related to: server-side-rendering, static-site-generators
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Client Side Rendering
Developers should use CSR when building dynamic, interactive web applications that require real-time updates, such as dashboards, social media platforms, or complex forms, as it provides a smooth user experience with fast client-side navigation
Pros
- +It's ideal for applications where user interactions drive frequent UI changes, as it minimizes server requests after the initial load, reducing latency for subsequent actions
- +Related to: javascript, react
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use Prerendering if: You want it is ideal for blogs, documentation sites, and e-commerce product pages where content changes infrequently, as it reduces server load and ensures consistent performance across devices and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use Client Side Rendering if: You prioritize it's ideal for applications where user interactions drive frequent ui changes, as it minimizes server requests after the initial load, reducing latency for subsequent actions over what Prerendering offers.
