We’ve also finished implementing server-side rendering for the ELIX web app. Modern progressive web applications (PWA’s) typically download dynamic code and execute it to render web pages locally on the client’s browser. This allows these applications some behavioral advantages, such as the ability to continue running without an internet connection. However, there are drawbacks to this approach, namely that web crawlers (with the exception of Google) cannot parse this javascript code to render the intended webpage. As a result, dynamic web applications are known for having issues getting ranked on search engines. Server-side rendering solves this issue by executing the application’s code itself to pre-render web pages that can be properly indexed by search engines and social media web crawlers. This allows us to enjoy the best of both worlds — a highly efficient web application that can properly leverage social media and search engines while providing the consistency of dynamically-rendered PWA’s.
