Server Actions and Their Benefits

Ryan continues to share the details behind his custom RSC implementation. He talks with Sam about how Server Actions allow the client to reference server-side code (in the same way client components allow the server to reference client-side code), how Server Actions are bundled and invoked, and the security concerns associated with blurring the lines between the server and the client.

Topics include:

• 0:00 - Intro
• 0:52 - Ryan’s course on React Server Components
• 3:06 - Motivating Server Actions, how to bundle them, and how to invoke them
• 27:38 - Sending arguments via hidden inputs or closures, and security concerns
