The Rise of Server Side Rendering

Server side rendering was born to solve the problems of search engines. It's when you take every permutation of every piece of state that your application could come up with on the back end and You render it before any requests show up on your web server at all. Rendering on the server is actually expensive, just rendering in general is kind of an expensive operation. And I have a pretty good story of how it actually took down some web servers at one point.
