What This is:

This is a working example of a SSG with partial(selective) hydration[⚡🧩💦].

Why

The server and client render should not be 1:1. Don't render buttons on the server that require JS to work. Don't ship code to the client that simply repeats what the server has already done

• https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2019/02/rendering-on-the-web

More features

• Lazy evaluate hydrated components with intersection observer
• Prefetch templates based on hover.
• Portal Based router using TurboLink-esq appraoch (super ugly right now)
• Host on render.com and get free brotli compression

Coming soon

• Build a unique component chunk and prerender each page with
• ServiceWorkers https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2019/02/rendering-on-the-web
• Better folder structure with to prerender many apps (monorepo?)
• Better AutoHydration Developer Experience
• Full deno bundling.
• SEO mobile/Desktop SSR https://developers.google.com/web/updates/2019/02/rendering-on-the-web#trisomorphic

Coming in the future

• Replace Turbolinks with https://web.dev/hands-on-portals/
• API for selective SSG or SSR https://nextjs.org/blog/next-9-3

How

Prerequisite

node v10+ (until deno has a proper bundler) deno: (brew install deno)

Bootstrap and Run All - Watch

npm i && deno --allow-run --allow-read src/main.ts

Or run commands independent.

Bundle frontend.

npm run build

Prerender HTML

deno --allow-write --allow-read --importmap=import_map.json ./src/prerender.ts

Server Dist:

deno --allow-net --allow-read --importmap=import_map.json src/server/serve.ts"

Prerender & Bundle & Serve:

deno --allow-write --allow-read --importmap=import_map.json prerender.ts && npm run build && deno --allow-net --allow-read --importmap=import_map.json server.ts

TODO

To bundle client side: (must be on master as of April 7th) ../deno/target/debug/deno bundle --importmap=import_map.json client/app.js dist/bundle.js

1. deno bundler still isn't ready for primetime.
2. until then we'll use microbundle to bundle our front end.
3. Minify html
4. Purgecss
5. device testing with refreshing?
6. Make a SSR Framework like fusion using oak
7. figure out DI by looking into fusion core.
8. Have a monorepo command line like nx
9. What is http3?
