What commenters say

  • Server-side rendering can be more expensive to host than client-side rendering, but it improves user experience.
  • The relationship between page load time and conversion rates is not linear and is influenced by many factors.
  • Some users argue that 100ms of added latency has a significant impact on conversions, while others believe it is negligible.
  • The cost of server-side rendering is relatively low with modern cloud services, and it can be a viable option for many use cases.
  • The choice between server-side and client-side rendering depends on the specific requirements and constraints of the application.
  • Some frameworks, such as Svelte and SvelteKit, can achieve fast and efficient rendering with minimal JavaScript sent to clients.
