- +Related to: javascript, react
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
Server-Side Rendering
Developers should use SSR when building applications that require fast initial page loads, strong SEO performance, or improved accessibility for users with slow connections or assistive technologies

- +Related to: next-js, nuxt-js
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
